Ingredients
- 2 tins tuna drained
- 3 tbsp crème fraîche – ideally low-fat (9%)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise – ideally light
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced
- 2 tbsp pickled gherkins, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 lemon, juice only
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
For assembling
- 4 large tortilla wraps
- 1 green pepper, cut into strips
- 1/4 red pointed cabbage, finely shredded
- 4 handfuls spinach
- 4 handfuls fresh lettuce
- Cocktail sticks
Instructions
- Put the ingredients for the tuna salad in a bowl and stir well. Season to taste with freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt and freshly ground pepper – and add a little more crème fraîche if you think it needs to be slightly creamier.
- Divide the tuna salad between the 4 wraps and spread it out, then top with the pepper, shredded cabbage, spinach and lettuce. Roll the tortillas up tightly and, if you like, wrap them in greaseproof paper so they hold their shape.
- Push cocktail sticks in along the seam where the wrap is joined, and cut each tortilla into 6-8 pieces. Scatter a few fresh herbs or greens over the top before serving, if you like.
