Step 1

Roughly tear up the bread and whiz to crumbs in a food processor (or use the coarse side of a box grater). Tip 75g into a shallow dish for coating, and the rest into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add two-thirds of the spring onions, half the cheese, 100g mayonnaise, the drained tuna and still-frozen sweetcorn to the mixing bowl (the frozen sweetcorn helps to chill the mixture so that it holds together well). Season and mix very thoroughly. Shape into 4 large, fat burgers, about 10cm diameter.

Step 3

Whisk 50g mayonnaise with 11⁄2 tablespoons cold water in a shallow bowl. Dip each tuna burger in this to coat, then in the reserved breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Preheat the grill and heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick frying pan. Add the tuna burgers to the pan and fry over a medium heat for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Lightly toast the burger buns under the grill.

Step 5

Add another 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, turn the burgers and fry for another 4-5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the remaining spring onions, 50g mayonnaise and 75g cheese in a small bowl. Spread on top of the burgers and pop under the grill for 1-2 minutes until melting.

Step 6

Serve in the burger buns, adding the tomato and lettuce leaves.
