I would try a basic bechamel sauce. Use 1 tbs. each butter and flour (or cornstarch if you prefer) and combine in a heavy pan on medium heat until flour has had a chance to cook a bit so the starch doesn't have a raw flavor. Then add a cup of milk and cook through, whisking all the while, until the sauce thickens. Add a little salt, pepper, and nutmeg and you have your sauce. Then add your tuna, peas, etc. That should taste good.
My mom made creamed tuna on toast like that, too! I still love the taste of it, but prefer to have it on mashed potatoes. Here's how she, and I, make the creamed tuna:





3 tbl. butter


3 tbl. flour


salt to taste


1 陆 c. milk


6 oz. can tuna, drained





Melt butter in saucepan. Add flour and salt and blend till smooth. Add milk slowly, stirring rapidly to prevent lumping. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the tuna and stir. Cook 1 minute more. Then serve on toast. (Or mashed potatoes.)





If you want to use cornstarch instead of flour, use half the amount (1 陆 tbl.), mix it with the cold milk before adding it to the hot butter, and you don't need to cook it as long.
