Directions

Step 1 of 4

Place Sealord Tuna Lemon Pepper, celery, onion, relish, yoghurt, aioli, mustard and dill in a bowl. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 2 of 4

Brush one side of each bread slice with oil. With the oiled sides facing out, assemble the sandwich with 1 (or 1 1/2) slices of cheese, the tuna mixture and then the remaining cheese. Press the sandwich together.

Step 4 of 4

Serve with a whole gherkin and a handful chips, if desired.

Foodie Tip
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can toast the melt in a frying pan on medium-low heat (roughly 4 minutes each side).
