Home Made Warm Tuna Salad Recipe
My home-made warm tuna salad is quick and easy to make. The taste may be a bit too simple for some people, but it’s good and healthy comfort food which I like.
Serves: 2
Ingredients:
1 head Romaine lettuce
1 can of tuna
1 Poached Egg
1 Tbsp. Dijon Mustard
1 ½ Tbsp. Mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. Olive oil
Croutons
Cheese to garnish (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
1. Separate the leaves of the lettuce and wash thoroughly. Put them in a colander (or use a salad spinner) to drain as much water off them as you can.
2. Shred the washed and dry lettuce into bite sized pieces and put them into 2 large bowls.
3. Open the can of tuna and drain the brine/water/oil out of the can. Once done, shred the tuna into a microwavable bowl and put in the microwave on high for about 20-30 seconds to heat thoroughly.
4. Mix the tuna with the Dijon mustard, mayonnaise and a little bit of pepper until it has spread evenly. Heap the tuna in even piles on the 2 bowls of lettuce.
5. Poach 2 eggs in rolling, boiling water. If you’re not sure how to poach an egg, read more about it here.
6.Place 1 egg on each of the 2 piles of tuna, thinly slice some cheese with a fruit peeler on top of the egg and spread your croutons (I just toasted bread until it was golden brown and hard before shredding it into bite sized pieces) on top.
7. Lightly drizzle 1 tbsp of olive oil evenly over each bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Enjoy.
Baking With Stan – Recipe: Cream Puffs
We decided to have a recipe section on our site and who better to introduce us to the world of baking and cooking than our friend, Stan.
Stan is currently pursuing his diploma in culinary arts at Taylor’s University College cooking up a storm. He has a passion for baking and has even transformed his whole house kitchen into a tiny industrial baking kitchen. ( So much so that his mum has complained that the industrial sized oven in his house is sucking up too much electricity).
Recently, we managed to get a demo of his baking skills at his home. Today’s recipe, Cream Puffs! Let us breakdown the ingredients for you. We’ll first start off with the puff pastry and later proceed with the pastry cream filling. MMmm Yummy.
