Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Canned tuna (in water or oil, drained)
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Celery (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Green onion (finely sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 12 slices White sandwich bread (crusts removed)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 6 leaves Baby spinach leaves
- 0.5 Cucumber (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lemon juice, celery, and green onion. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Season the tuna mixture with salt and black pepper. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Lay out the slices of sandwich bread on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of softened butter on one side of each slice. This prevents the bread from becoming soggy.
On one buttered slice of bread, spread a generous layer of the tuna mixture evenly. Top with baby spinach leaves and a few thin slices of cucumber for added freshness.
Place another slice of buttered bread on top of the tuna and spinach, with the buttered side facing down. Repeat this layering process until you have three layers of bread with filling in between, creating a ribbon sandwich.
Press the assembled sandwich gently to ensure it holds together. Use a sharp serrated knife to trim the edges neatly, if needed.
Cut each sandwich into thirds or quarters to create rectangular or triangular shapes. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for a tidy presentation.
Optionally, sprinkle a light dusting of paprika on top for a touch of visual appeal and added flavor.
Serve the spicy tuna ribbon sandwiches fresh or refrigerate them for up to an hour before serving. Enjoy!
