This detailed guide will help you create a delicious tuna sandwich with simple steps, bringing back warm feelings with every bite.
Main Ingredients- 1 can Tuna (approx. 150g), drained thoroughly
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped Onion
- 2 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp Ketchup
- 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, drain the tuna very thoroughly by placing it in a sieve. Removing excess oil is crucial for a non-greasy and clean-tasting sandwich.
Step 2
To the drained tuna, add the mayonnaise, ketchup, and Dijon mustard. The Dijon mustard adds a slight zest and depth of flavor.
Step 3
Mix all the ingredients well using a spatula or spoon. Then, add the finely chopped onion and mix again. The crispness of the onion will add a refreshing texture to your sandwich.
Step 4
Slice your ciabatta bread or sandwich bread in half. Lightly toast it in a pan or toaster. Be careful not to over-toast, as ciabatta can become hard and difficult to eat. Toast just until it’s lightly golden and slightly crisp.
Step 5
Generously pile the prepared tuna mixture onto the warm, toasted bread. Place the top half of the bread to complete your delicious tuna sandwich! Enjoy immediately for the best taste.
