olive oil
onion
tuna
french mayonaise
lemon juice
oregano

1) drain your tuna*
2) put the tuna in a bowl with the lemon juice, oregano and some olive oil and put to one side for a bit.
3) mince up a fucking onion**
4) add the onion to the bowl
5) whack some FRENCH mayonaise in there
6) mix that shit up with a fork

then slather that shit all over your bread, salad or whatever

Stay away from that albacore tuna, its filthy with Hg.

I go in my bedroom and shut the door to keep the cats away, then I cut the lid open, let it fall in and press it down to squeeze all the water out.

Then add minced garlic, diced onion, salt, pepper, mayo, and if you're into it, either capers or minced dill pickle. If you use capers, don't add the salt. When I started out with this, I would mix the tuna, mayo, and garlic, refrigerate for a few hours, and then adjust the flavorings. Garlic is critical tho... I've never seen two foods go so well together.

A lot of these other recommendations seem like they are from noobs (tuna and grilled cheese are the first thing kids learn). They seem to be trying to cover up the flavor/texture. Nonsense.

This is my favorite food.

Water packed tuna, drain it however you see fit. Mix in garlic, onion, celery, salt, pepper. Scoop out some of the bread from a french loaf (or hogie roll/sub bun if that's all you have), replace the bread with lots of tuna, add some white cheddar slices, pickle, tomatos, and shredded iceberg lettuce. Wrap it in plastic or foil and refrigerate. Eat it the next day.

You drain out the tasteless sunflower oil that is there just to preserve the tuna.

Then you drain it off so its gone

Then you add in flavourful extra vrigin olive oil which is meant to be used as a dressing.

So no, it is not just adding back oil you drained off, there is a purpose

I can't take credit for this recipe, I lifted it from /ck/ about a year or so ago. Its delicious though and I feel compelled to share it with ye all.

You will need:
>Canned Tuna
>Lemon Juice
>Salt & Pepper
>Celery
>Onion
>Bell Pepper (or carrot)
>Saltine Crackers (or breadcrumbs, or anything like that.)
>Cajun Seasoning
>Egg

Step One:
Chop up your celery, onion and bell pepper (or carrot) very finely and sautee it for a bit. (This'll obviously be your Mirepoix or "Holy Trinity" depending on which you decide to do. Either way, it's 1 part celery, 1 part bell pepper (or carrot) and 2 parts onion.)

Step Two:
Strain your tuna. Dump it into a bowl with the sauteed mixture and some saltines along with the Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper and lemon. Add egg. Mix it up.

Step Three:
Make patties out of the mixture. Lay them aside.

Step Four:
Cook the patties! Toss them in the same pan you sauteed the aromatics, cook them with butter until lightly browned on each side.

Step Five:
Eat. I like them in a pita with a light cream sauce or just plain. You can also try them on a fried tortilla with fresh veggies. It makes a great lunch.

Hope you enjoy!


Forgot the mayo/mustard. You need to add mayo and or mustard to the patty mixture.

Really, you've done goofed and instead of being a man about it you're just continuing to argue a point that you're actually objectively incorrect about.

I'll make it nice and simple for you

1) Anon A said tuna freshly caught doesn't smell
2) You misread that as 'does smell'
3) You proceeded to lead some weird polemic against Anon A
4) I carefully explained the situation to you
5) You still don't seem to understand

2)Also Anon A claims to have been tuna fishing. A lie

They're heaps nice if you boil them in salted water for about 3 minutes or so (make sure it's boiling before you drop em in)

Just be careful you don't lose that godly skin, take em out before they're even slightly tender, just to get some heat inside them.

drain them, toss in olive oil, sea salt and pepper, if you can get heaps of cooking salt put a layer of it about a centimetre thick on the bottom of the baking dish, place the sweet pottys on top, bake at about 180-200 (fan forced/convection) for 20-30 minutes, till the skin is crispy
