Yield 4 serves

Number Of Ingredients 10

60g (2 1/4oz) butter
2T plain flour
500ml (17oz/2c) milk
1/2t dry mustard
90g (3 1/4ozor3/4c) grated cheddar cheese
600g (1lb 5oz) tinned tuna in brine, drained
2T flat-leaf parsley, chopped
2 eggs, hard-boiled & chopped
4T fresh breadcrumbs
ground paprika for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180 (350f/gas 4). Melt butter in small pan, add flour and stir and cook over low heat for 1 minute. Remove from heat and slowly pour in milk, stirring until you have a smooth sauce. Return to heat and stir constantly until sauce boils and thickens. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, whisk in mustard and 2/3 of the cheese. Whisk until smooth. Roughly flake tuna with a fork, then tip into the cheese sauce, along with parsley, and egg. Season, then spoon into four 250ml (9fl oz/1c) ovenproof ramekins. Mix together breadcrumbs and the remaining cheese, then sprinkle over the mornay. Dust each one with a little paprika. Place in oven for 20 minutes, or until hot and golden brown.
