NOTES
1. - Tortilla wraps
Delicious natural wheat tortillas are used for this recipe. But you can also opt for a multigrain wrap tortilla with a slightly nutty taste.
2. Heating - By heating the tortilla briefly in a dry frying pan, you can roll it better without tearing it. They don't have to be hot; a little warm (5 to 10 seconds on medium heat) is enough.
3. Tuna - Use canned tuna. You can buy this with olive oil, sunflower oil, or water. The end result doesn't matter much, but tuna in water is slightly slimmer. Drain thoroughly — press out as much liquid as possible so the roll-ups don’t turn soggy.
4. Mayonnaise - Makes a rich and creamy tuna salad. And you can also make it yourself with this recipe for mayonnaise from scratch.
5. Curry - also known as curryketchup, currygewürz, or currygewürzketchup is a sauce widely eaten in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, and Denmark. It is a spicy, sweet variant of tomato ketchup. Do you want to make it yourself? Then take a look at this delicious curry recipe.
6. Rolls in plastic foil - Rolling the wraps in plastic and refrigerating for an hour will allow the flavors to blend well and keep the wrap in shape.
7. - Storage
- Refrigeration - You can keep the cold wraps with tuna in the fridge for two days (which means you can make them a day in advance). Then store them in the plastic wrap in the refrigerator.
- Freezer - Remove the mixed lettuce (or wait to add it). You can't freeze lettuce! Instead, cut the tortillas into small wraps and spread them on a baking tray. Put it in the freezer for 2 hours, then collect the wraps and put them in a freezer container or bag. This way, they stay good for up to 1 month. Let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Then add the lettuce.
