How to make a delicious and easy canned tuna sandwich at home?
Take one small can of tuna canned in olive oil. Use only the highest quality canned tuna. Put the tuna from the can into the bowl. Therefore, choose a bowl large enough to comfortably mix the ingredients.
Peel one small red onion. You will need 1/5 of a red onion to make this sandwich. So cut off 1/5 of the red onion, wash it well and place it on a chopping board. Chop the red onion well and put it in the same bowl as the tuna.
Take a small piece of cheese. Fermented or hard cheese is best for this tuna sandwich. We use a fermented cheese. Grate the cheese finely. Add the grated cheese to the bowl with the other ingredients.
Add some freshly ground black pepper to the dish
Add one tablespoon of mayonnaise to the dish.
Mix well the mayonnaise and all the ingredients in the container.
Take a medium-sized fresh cucumber. Cut off a few cucumber rings. Cut the cucumber rings in half. Put the cucumber slices aside for a while. We will use them later.
Take two slices of sandwich bread. We suggest you use wholemeal sandwich bread, which is very healthy and quite high in fibre. However, if you prefer white flour - light sandwich bread, you can also make this tuna sandwich with light bread. As we know, light sandwich bread is tastier than darker wholemeal bread.
Take one tablespoon of the tuna and other ingredients mixture from the bowl and spread it on the sandwich bread slice. Spread the tuna and other ingredients evenly over the slice.
Once the sandwich filling is evenly distributed, place 6 slices of sliced cucumber on top.
Take the second slice of sandwich bread and place it on the tuna sandwich. Cut the sandwich in half.
If you want to keep the tuna sandwich warm and crispy, you can toast the sandwich bread in a frying pan before applying the tuna filling.
Toast the bread in the pan for about 6 minutes (3 minutes on each side) over medium heat. Don't forget to add a little (1 tbsp) olive oil to the pan to prevent the bread from burning.
And that's how we made this great tuna sandwich. It was very simple, wasn't it?
Enjoy!
