Easy Tuna Sandwich Spread Recipes

TUNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Drain water from the canned tuna and add to a bowl.
• Add 3-4 Tbsp Mayonnaise. You can add more or less according to preference. (See notes)
• Stir the tuna well, so that it becomes easily spreadable.
• Add the mustard and minced shallots.
• Use a fork to mix and stir the tuna to get it more smooth and spreadable. I like it only slightly chunky. If you want it extremely smooth, mix further.
• Once the texture is to your liking, add in the freshly chopped dill, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir till thoroughly incorporated.
• Chill the tuna spread for at least 30 minutes in the fridge for best results. The filling tastes better chilled.
• To assemble: Shred the lettuce (rinsed and dried using a salad spinner or on kitchen paper).
• For each sandwich, apply a thin layer of Mayo on both slices of Un-toasted bread. Spread a generous layer of chilled tuna filling on one slice and top with plenty of shredded lettuce. Place the second slice over the lettuce and use a baking scraper to press it down, to prevent finger impressions.
• Cut the sandwich and serve while it is still chilled.
• if you want to store them wrap in sandwich paper or saran wrap and refrigerate till ready to use.

EASY TUNA SPREAD

Steps:

• Open the cans and pour most of the oil into a separate glass or bowl (you'll add some of the oil later on)
• Put the tuna in your food processor with a few squeezes of lemon juice, parsley and some pepper
• Blend and slowly add some of the oil you saved from the cans. I usually add about half of the oil, but it's up to you to decide on the desired consistency. It's a spread so it shouldn't be too runny, but you don't want it to be dry either
• Optional: I find some brands of canned tuna too salty. If that's the case, I add a few spoons of ricotta to neutralise the salty taste and add some extra creaminess
• This tuna spread will keep about 1 week in your fridge
