Drain the tuna thoroughly and keep wet ingredients such as tomato separate until serving. A thin layer of butter or mayonnaise on the bread can also help stop the filling soaking in.

Mix drained tuna with mayonnaise or plain yoghurt, then add finely chopped celery or spring onion for crunch. Sweetcorn, cucumber and a squeeze of lemon also work well.

Wrap it or put it in a sealed container and refrigerate promptly. Eat it within a day, and don’t leave it at room temperature for more than two hours.
