Ingredients

  • 16 fish fingers (£1.60)
  • 8 little gem lettuce leaves (£0.89)
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced (£0.15)
  • 1 tbsp capers (£2.20/10)=(£0.22)
  • 8 slices thick bread (£1.00)
  • Juice of ¼- ½ lemon (£0.30)
  • 100 g mini gherkins (£1.25/8)=(£0.15)

Cupboard Essentials

  • 6 tbsp mayonnaise

Instructions

Preheat you oven to 360°F (180°C)

  • Start by placing the fish fingers on a baking tray to cook in the oven (around 14 mins in my case).
  • Roughly chop the capers and add them to a mixing bowl with the mayonnaise and juice of ¼ to ½ a lemon, depending on preference. . Stir to combine. If you love the briney/salty flavour of capers, add ½ tsp of the brine from the jar into the caper mayo.
  • Toast your thick slices of white bread for 1-2 minutes, until lightly toasted (we only want a light toast here!
  • Add a layer of caper mayo onto each slice of lightly roasted bread, then to the bottom piece, add a layer of lettuce, fish fingers, red onion, gherkins and a crack of black pepper. Add the top slice of bread and slice through the middle to serve
