A Simple and Delightful Weekend Breakfast: Mustard Mayo Tuna Salad Sandwich
Korean home-style meals often require multiple dishes like soups, stews, and various side dishes, which can be quite time-consuming. While we don’t always prepare new side dishes for every meal, even arranging existing ones can feel like a chore on a relaxing weekend. That’s why on holidays, opting for simple, easy-to-clean-up one-bowl meals or making sandwiches with whatever vegetables and bread you have on hand is a great way to enjoy a light meal with coffee or milk. These kinds of dishes are so straightforward that anyone in the family can whip them up easily.
Sandwich Ingredients- 150g canned tuna (1 can)
- 1/4 onion
- 10 slices dill pickles
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 Tbsp whole grain mustard
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1/2 Tbsp oligosaccharide (optional, for sweetness)
- Pinch of black pepper
- 4 slices of bread
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare one 150g can of tuna. It’s best to drain the oil thoroughly using a sieve. Removing excess moisture will prevent the salad from becoming watery. Place the drained tuna in a bowl.
Step 2
Finely mince 1/4 onion and 10 slices of dill pickles. If you find raw onion too pungent, you can soak it in cold water for a bit before draining and using. Add the minced ingredients to the bowl with the tuna.
Step 3
Use a mandoline or knife to finely shred the cabbage. Rinse the shredded cabbage lightly under running water, then thoroughly dry it using a salad spinner or paper towels. Keeping it crisp is key for a delightful texture! (About 2 cups worth).
Step 4
Add 1 Tbsp of whole grain mustard, 3 Tbsp of mayonnaise, 1/2 Tbsp of oligosaccharide (if you prefer sweetness), and a pinch of black pepper to the bowl. Gently mix everything together until the tuna, onion, pickles, and cabbage are well combined, creating a smooth salad.
Step 5
Prepare 4 slices of bread. Generously spread the mustard-mayo tuna salad mixture onto two slices of bread. Top with the remaining two slices of bread to create your delicious Mustard Mayo Tuna Salad Sandwiches! For an extra touch, you can lightly toast the bread before assembling.
