Step by Step Method
Step 1
Mix everything together with a fork. If you need to adjust it with more mayo/less, it's up to you.
Step 2
NOTE: I normally never measure the ingredients, I eye-ball it to our liking like my mother did. However, my mom never used the mayo., but I use it to suit our Americanized tastes and it helps bind it especially in a sandwich.
Step 3
Serve it on it's own as part of a green salad or in a sandwich (I normally toast sliced bread lightly before adding the tuna).
