Tuna BruschettaINGREDIENTS

  • 1 5-ounce can albacore tuna in water, drained
  • 1/2 shallot, grated
  • 1.5 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar or 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped
  • A touch of salt
  • A lot of freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 big slices of round country bread

PROCEDURE

Preheat the broiler.

In a bowl, mix together the tuna, mayo, olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, shallot, parsley, salt, and pepper.  Taste it, and see if you want to add any extra salt, pepper, vinegar, or lemon.  Set aside.

Arrange your bread on a baking sheet, and sit it under the broiler until it’s golden brown—about 3 minutes-ish.  Flip them over, and toast the other side.

Pile the tuna on the toast, and serve!  I like a few cornichons on the side.
