- Toast as many slices of French bread as you need. Meanwhile, lightly mash the beans. Pour 2 tbsp of tuna oil over the beans, then flake in the tuna. Gently mix in the parsley, and season to taste.
- When the toast is ready, drizzle it with a bit of the tuna oil. Top the toast with a slice of tomato and top the tomato with a spoonful of bean mix. Scatter over the sliced onion. (Any extra bean mix will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.) Drizzle the toasts with a little more oil (use olive oil if you run out of tuna oil) and serve.
Making it different
For a veggie version, simply mash the beans with a little olive oil. Make it meaty - top the tomatoes with a slice of salami and top that with the beans. Try fresh coriander, dill or chives in place of parsley leaves.

'We were pleasantly surprised at the taste and texture of this. Tuna in olive oil gave a good kick to it. The second time I made it I topped it with grated cheese and grilled it.'
