Notes

I’ve been thinking up creative ways of using my tubes of Anchovy Paste and combining it with mayonnaise for the ultimate, grown-up Tuna Sandwich seemed like a no brainer.

It adds a salty kick which would be perfect with a cold beer on the side!

Additionals: feel free to add sliced tomatoes or even some rocket leaves.
