You own 6 cans of tuna. You know 1 recipe.
Mayonnaise and bread
It works, and it's the only thing most of us ever do with a tin of tuna.
Sardines opened once
Bought with good intentions, opened, looked at, and put back in the fridge.
The oil poured away
In an oil‑packed tin that oil has taken on the flavour of the fish, and it's the best part.
Nothing to lift it
Without acid, crunch and something fresh, a tin on its own tastes flat whatever you do.
What you get
Everything you need to turn the tins into dinner.
7 complete meals
Built from the tins and ingredients you actually have – pasta, patties, bowls, salads and things on toast, each with a method in a few steps.
The flavour formula
Acid, crunch, richness, heat and something fresh – five elements that lift any tin, with what to use for each from your cupboard.
3 five-minute meals
Open the tin, add two or three things, eat – for the evenings when cooking anything at all feels like too much.
Fish by fish
Tuna, sardines, salmon, mackerel and anchovies – what each is like, what suits it, and what to look for on the tin.
What's worth keeping in
The handful of staples that turn any tin into a meal, and which of the seven you can already make tonight.

Questions
Everything you need to know.
I don't think I like sardines. Where do I start?
With ones packed in olive oil rather than water or tomato sauce, on good toast, with lemon, salt and a pinch of chilli. The oil makes them rich rather than sharp, and it's how they're eaten across the Mediterranean. If that doesn't win you over, mackerel or salmon are milder places to start.
Should I drain the tin?
Drain water‑packed fish. Don't drain olive oil – it's taken on the flavour of the fish and makes a ready‑made sauce. Sardine oil with garlic and pasta is a dinner in itself, and pouring it away is throwing out the most useful thing in the tin.
How much tinned fish is sensible in a week?
Guidance on oily fish and on mercury varies by country and by species, and it's different again if you're pregnant or breastfeeding or cooking for young children. Sardines, salmon and mackerel are generally at the lower end for mercury and larger tuna at the higher end – but check your own country's advice rather than a figure from a product page.
Does tinned salmon really make patties?
It does, and they're one of the better arguments for keeping a tin in. Salmon, an egg, breadcrumbs, herbs and lemon zest, shaped and fried a few minutes a side – about a quarter of an hour from cupboard to plate.
Will my kitchen smell of fish?
Less than you'd expect, particularly for the no‑cook meals. If you're frying, put the extractor on, and simmering a little water with lemon and vinegar afterwards clears the air quickly.
