What you'll need.

  • 1 avocado

  • 1 tbsp cottage cheese

How to make it.

  1. Chop the avocado and cucumber, and grate the boiled egg.
  2. Combine with the tuna, dill, cilantro and cottage cheese, season with salt and pepper and mix well.
  3. Heat oil in a pan and fry the bread until crisp and golden.
  4. Spread the mixture over the bread, grate parmesan on top and serve.

My tips.

Drain the tuna well and use ripe avocado for the creamiest spread. Fry the bread just before serving so it stays crisp.

Good to know.

Can I make it ahead?
Make the mixture ahead and chill; toast the bread fresh.

Can I swap the herbs?
Parsley works well if you prefer it to cilantro.

Is it filling?
Yes, tuna, egg and avocado make it a satisfying protein-rich bite.
