Lemon Handbags With Coronation Tuna

Lemon Handbags With Coronation Tuna

A retro party food redeveloped from an old recipe book from the 70’s to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

Ingredients:

Lemon x 3 cut into purses

Princes canned tuna x 1 can 145g drained

Mayonnaise x 65g

Curry powder x 8g

Apricot jam or mango chutney x 30g

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

Raisins x 10g

Cooking Instructions:

  • Slice off the top and bottom of the lemon so that either side is smooth
  • Remove a section from the left & right of one end of the lemon, leaving a ‘loop’ of lemon that will form the handle of the purse
  • Carefully slice the flesh of the lemon out of the ‘handle’
  • Carefully scoop the flesh of the lemon out of the base to create the open purse
  • Use the leftover flesh of the lemon in a refreshing summer drink or to infuse a jug of ice-cold water
  • Drain your Princes Tuna
  • Mix all ingredients together in a bowl
  • Carefully fill the purses
  • Chill in the fridge for a couple of hours to firm up the tuna filling and serve
