This is a recipe I wrote myself and it is a twist on an old classic.
I was home alone one evening and craving both cucumbers and protein. After a brief consultation with both my scary french cookbook and my actual fridge I decided on salted cucumbers with tuna salad. In the picture is a little local sweet potato which I boiled in the microwave and then filled with honey and cinnamon (YUM)
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 cucumber
1 can tuna fish
A dash of vinegar (I used the red wine kind but any will do in a pinch)
A dash lemon juice
A dolop or two of mayonnaise
Tony Chacheres (optional)
Zatar (optional)
First off open the tuna and drain the water placing the remaining dryish tuna in a bowl.
Second put some water in a second bowl and place that bowl in the microwave. Now crack an egg into the water in the microwave bowl and microwave for 1-2min or until yolk appears hard.
In the mean time you can add the vinegar, lemon juice and Mayo to the tuna. When the egg is ready add that too and chop it up in the bowl with a knife or fork.
Last but most important cut the cucumber into slices and arrange them in a single layer on a surface.
Sprinkle one side with the Tony Chacheres and then flip them all over and do the second side with the Zatar.
(one could do salt and pepper in a pinch but some sort of spice is necessary to bring out the cucumber)
Last but not least assemble them into sandwiches and enjoy!
I do hope you guys enjoy this bread free sandwich as much as I did!
