EASY TUNA SPREAD
Steps:
- Open the cans and pour most of the oil into a separate glass or bowl (you'll add some of the oil later on)
- Put the tuna in your food processor with a few squeezes of lemon juice, parsley and some pepper
- Blend and slowly add some of the oil you saved from the cans. I usually add about half of the oil, but it's up to you to decide on the desired consistency. It's a spread so it shouldn't be too runny, but you don't want it to be dry either
- Optional: I find some brands of canned tuna too salty. If that's the case, I add a few spoons of ricotta to neutralise the salty taste and add some extra creaminess
- This tuna spread will keep about 1 week in your fridge

Steps:
- Using a fork, squash the egg thoroughly until uniform in texture and colour.
- Add sandwich tuna.
- If using tuna in water, add olive oil; if using tuna in oil, leave it out.
- It's possible to use chunk tuna instead, you just have to put more effort into squashing it well.
- Add the chopped onion, mix and squash a bit with the fork-- I find this releases the juice from the onion and adds flavour without giving it that'onion-y' taste.
- Add mayonnaise and mix well.
- Serve in a small bowl and garnish with parsley as desired.
- Also works well on crackers or as a spread.
- Keeps in the refrigerator for at least a week-- I haven't tried longer than this because it always gets eaten!
