Prepare the Bread:
Take the slices of white bread and spread margarine on both sides of each slice. Lightly toast the bread on a non-stick pan or griddle until they’re golden and crispy on the outside. Set aside. -
Cook the Eggs:
Crack two eggs into a bowl and beat them well. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Heat a small amount of margarine in the pan, then pour in the eggs to make a thin omelet. Cook until both sides are lightly browned. Remove from the pan and set aside. -
Make the Tuna Spread:
Drain the canned tuna and sauté it lightly in a heated pan for just a minute to remove any excess moisture. Transfer the tuna to a mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise and chili sauce, and stir until well combined. Set aside. -
Assemble the Sandwich:
Take one slice of toasted bread, and spread a generous layer of the tuna spread over it. Top with cucumber slices, tomato slices, and a crisp lettuce leaf. Place a portion of the omelet on top of the vegetables, then cover with another slice of bread. -
Serve:
Cut the sandwich in half, and serve with extra mayonnaise or chili sauce for dipping. Enjoy this simple and delicious sandwich, which combines savory flavors with fresh ingredients!
