Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 5 oz tuna packed in water drained
  • ¼ cup carrot grated
  • ¼ cup Sriracha Mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup red pepper diced
  • 1 TBSP onion grated
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 TBSP dill pickles finely diced
  • 1 TBSP fresh lemon juice
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • strainer
  • box grater
  • Garlic press
  • pepper grinder

Method
 

  1. Drain the tuna. I like to use a small strainer.
  2. Grate the carrot, mince the garlic.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients.
  4. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
  5. Serve with homemade bread

Notes

For the Sriracha Mayonnaise, using Heinz Mayoracha Spicy Mayo is a nice spicy choice. However, if you prefer, use a plain mayonnaise.

    Hanna, this recipe is a delightful change from my usual tuna salad.
    Especially like the grated carrot, red pepper and garlic. 🙂
