Description
A flavorful and creamy tuna salad sandwich featuring a subtle hint of aromatic curry powder, crunchy celery, and a tangy sourdough bread base.
Ingredients
2 (5-ounce) cans tuna (drained)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon sweet relish
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
8 slices sourdough bread
4 slices lettuce (optional)
4 slices tomatoes (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, chopped celery, sweet relish, yellow mustard, lemon juice, and curry powder. Stir the mixture gently until all ingredients are well incorporated and the tuna is evenly coated with the dressing.
Prepare your bread by toasting it lightly if you enjoy a warm, crunchy contrast to the cool salad.
Spoon a generous portion of the tuna mixture onto the slices of bread.
Layer on slices of fresh lettuce and tomato if you desire, then close the sandwiches and serve immediately.
Notes
Always drain your tuna well. Excess liquid can lead to a watery sandwich that makes the bread soggy.
When chopping your celery, aim for small, uniform pieces. This ensures you get a bit of crunch in every single bite without it overpowering the texture of the tuna.
If you are prepping this for an office lunch, keep the tuna mixture in a separate airtight container and assemble the sandwich only when you are ready to eat.
