    Ingredients

    Amounts for
    • 4 English muffins, halved
    • 340g tuna in spring water (drained weight), flaked
    • 40g celery, finely diced
    • 2 stems of spring onion, thinly sliced
    • 1 tbsp cornichons, finely chopped
    • 8 tbsp mayonnaise
    • 240g mozzarella cheese, sliced

    Method

    1. Turn the oven on to 220°C (fan 200°C) and put the muffin halves in straight away, cut side up on a lined tray, so they toast as it heats.

    2. Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise, cornichons, celery and most of the spring onion in a bowl. Flake in the tuna, season and stir it all together.

    3. Pile the tuna onto the muffins, pressing it down firmly, and cover with the mozzarella slices.

    4. Bake for about 10 minutes more, until the mozzarella has melted and browned in patches.

    5. Eat warm, with the spring onion you saved scattered on top.
