I use the mixture of Canned Tuna and Japanese Mayonnaise for many dishes such as Sushi, Rice Bowl, Onigiri (Rice Balls), etc. If it is for a rice dish, I definitely add a small amount of Soy Sauce. If it is for a sandwich, there are three things I want to add, and they are Red Onion, Dill Pickled Cucumber and Celery. And I like to use toasted Bread because it makes a huge difference in flavour and texture.

1 Serving
Ingredients
1 can (95g) Tuna *I use Tuna in Springwater
1 pinch Salt
Ground Black Pepper as required
1/2 to 1 tablespoon thinly sliced Celery
1/2 to 1 tablespoon finely chopped Red Onion
1/2 to 1 tablespoon finely OR coarsely chopped Dill Pickled Cucumber
2 tablespoons Mayonnaise *I use Japanese Mayonnaise
2 slices Bread
Butter
Iceberg Lettuce
Method
- Drain and remove excess water from Tuna, and place in a bowl. Add Salt and Black Pepper, and mix to combine.
- Add Celery, Red Onion, Dill Pickled Cucumber and Mayonnaise, and mix well. *Note: If you use a different type of Pickled Cucumber that is not sour, a small amount of Lemon Juice OR Vinegar can improve the flavour.
- Toast two slices of Bread if you like, lightly Butter them, and sandwich some Lettuce and the Tuna mixture.
