How To Make My 4-Ingredient Tuna Salad

Open a can of your favorite tuna and drain it.

Oil-packed tuna makes the salad a bit too greasy for my tastes.

Mix the tuna in a bowl with as much mayo as you like.

I use Kewpie mayo, but I also recommend Hellman’s or Duke’s.

Then mix in a spoonfullarge or small, depending on your spice toleranceof sriracha or chili garlic paste.

Even your favorite hot sauce would be just fine.

You want something to provide flavor and salt.

Pile the tuna salad inside and sprinkle it with furikake.

You could even crumble up some toasted nori and sprinkle that on top.

Or just go with toasted sesame seeds if you don’t have nori around.

Instead, I cut it into thick slices and just serve them alongside the tuna salad.

If you’re concerned about the lack of measurements above, don’t be!
