Method
step 1
Tip the tuna into a bowl and mix in the mayonnaise, gochujang and spring onion. Season to taste. Either chill for later, or if ready to serve, continue with the recipe.
step 2
Divide the tuna between 2 pieces of bread, top with the grated cheese, then close the sandwiches with the other 2 pieces of bread.
step 3
Melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium-low heat. Fry the sandwich for 2-3 mins until golden, then flip and cook for another 2-3 mins until crisp and the cheese has melted. Cut in half to serve.
