Crispy Tuna Bake

Submitted by Scoob

"I just love this dish. Different from a usual tuna bake, this can be served either hot or cold, with vegetables or salad."

 

• Ready In: 35mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2 (6 ounce) cans tuna in vegetable oil
• 1 medium onion (chopped finely)
• 450 g cheddar cheese

• 1 egg (to bind)
• 50 g milk (to bind)
• 1 pinch salt & pepper
• 1 fresh tomato
• 1 -2 minced garlic cloves, minced or 1 teaspoon garlic powder

directions

1. Drain tuna & place in mixing bowl with onions, salt & pepper and half amount of cheese.
2. Crush 1/2 bag of potato chips & add to mixing bowl & mix together, with a little garlic powder and salt & pepper. If you can't get cheese & garlic chips, then cheese & onion will suffice, in which case, 1 clove of crushed garlic can be added.
3. Beat the egg & mix in with the tuna mixture.
4. Add a little milk if more binding required & place into ovenproof dish.
5. If you're adding fresh tomatoes, thinly slice tomato and layer with the tuna mix into the ovenproof dish.
6. Crush rest of crisps & mix with remaining grated cheese & sprinkle on top of tuna mix.
7. Bake in a medium oven for around 15-20 mins or until golden brown on top.
