These tuna burgers remind me of my mom, and they're a really good way to take advantage of both my freezer and the cheap day-old rolls at the local bakery. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
6 whole wheat rolls, preferably crusty ones
2 (195 g) cans tuna fish
1 1/4 cups grated gouda cheese
1/2 teaspoon dill
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
3 tablespoons tartar sauce
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
hot sauce
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl except for rolls and hot sauce. The mixture should be moist. If not, add a bit more tartar sauce.
2. Cut each roll in half and remove some of the bread inside to make a small indentation. (Skip this step if you are using hamburger-style rolls.) Spoon 1/6th of the mixture into the roll. Drizzle tuna fish mixture with hot sauce, close roll & wrap sandwich in foil. (To reduce onion flavor, cook it beforehand in a bit of oil.).
3. Bake at 180C/350F for 12 minutes in foil. Remove from foil and allow to bake another 3 minutes or until crusty. Also freezes well.
