Recipe: Bonito del Norte Tuna and Guindilla Peppers Sandwiches
Our attempt at a recipe by chef Seamus Mullen of
Tertulia, we toasted the bread because toast is delicious and makes everything better. You can also try chopping up the guindillas and the egg to make smaller, pintxo-sized bites for parties and general snacking.
Total Time (preparation and cooking): 15-20 minutes
Ingredients
1 can -
Bonito del Norte Tuna in Olive Oil (use more or less based on your own judgement)
1 loaf of your favorite bread (sourdough? rye? sure!)
1 tbsp chopped chives
1 tbsp diced shallots
1 tbsp capers or chopped caper berries
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (the oil from the tuna will do)
lemon zest
Chopped
manzanilla olives (however many you feel is appropriate)
2 tbsp mayonnaise
Salt and pepper to taste
Guindilla Peppers (again, to taste; probably one or two peppers per serving)
2 eggs
