Oh, I was sooooo tired of always getting the same old tuna salad every time I was ordering one in the restaurant: corn, some tuna, some onions and here you go... Take it or leave it...
I wanted something more....oh la la.... So, here it is... Parisian Tuna Sandwich... :)
What you need ( for 3 people):
- one fresh black bread ( if you prefer white bread, you can use that too) - I found this wonderful black bread with seeds at KomsuFirin in Istanbul... Is soooo yummy!!!
- 2 medium cans of tuna fish ( I used fish in water, not in olive oil...more light :P )
- 3 eggs
- 1 avocado
- half of an onion cut thinly
- arugula salad
- 3 medium sized tomatoes
- 3 spring onions
- 3 small cucumbers
- olive oil
- red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
How to make it:
1. In a medium bowl pour 1/2 cup of olive oil and 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar. Add the thinly cut onion, salt and pepper, give it a mix and put it aside for 10 minutes.
2. In the meanwhile boil your eggs and cut your bread in slanted slices. After 10 minutes add to the onions the drained tuna cans, the spring onions cut in pieces, the radishes, cut as well, and the whole grain mustard. Separately cut the tomatoes in slices. Do the same for the avocado, the eggs, the cucumbers.
3. Put a slice of bread on your serving plate. Pour on it a little of the sauce from the tuna mix. Then put on top of it a few leaves of arugula, then top it with tomatoes, egg slices, the tuna mix from your bowl and the avocado slices ( just arrange it a little.. it should look a little messy...This is the fun in it anyway... The bohemian Parisian look ) and then top everything with another slice of bread sprinkled with the tuna sauce. Serve it with a small spinach salad for a healthy addition...
Enjoy a healthy lunch or dinner and feel like a french ;)
