Instructions

5 steps

1
Open the can of tuna and drain the water completely. For the best texture, press the tuna firmly against the lid or in a sieve to remove as much moisture as possible.

2
Transfer the drained tuna to a medium mixing bowl and use a fork to flake it into small, even pieces.
3
Add the mayonnaise, finely diced celery, diced red onion, and lemon juice to the bowl. Mix vigorously until the ingredients are fully incorporated and creamy.
4
Taste the mixture and season with a pinch of salt and a generous crack of black pepper. Mix again.
5
Spoon the tuna salad onto one slice of bread, spreading it evenly to the edges. Top with the second slice of bread, press gently, and slice diagonally before serving.
