Ingredients

  • 1 lb canned tuna (450 g)
  • 1 medium fresh tomato
  • 2 medium fresh spring onion
  • 1 Granny Smith apple
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • a handful fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
  • olive oil
  • pepper
  • salt

Instructions

  1. 1) Drain the canned tuna. Then transfer the tuna to a large mixing bowl and crumble it lightly with a fork or using your hands.

  2. 2) Finely chop up the tomato, spring onions and green apple. Add all this to the flaked tuna in the mixing bowl.

  3. 3) Stir the ingredients until well combined. Then add a good splash of olive oil and the red wine vinegar. Season with pepper and salt to taste. Add the freshly chopped herbs (I added mint).

  4. 4) Stir the tuna salad well again. Check the seasoning and add extra vinegar, olive oil or pepper and salt to taste if necessary. Let the salad chill in the fridge for another 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Stir one last time, then transfer the tuna salad to a clean bowl or plate, sprinkle with extra pepper (optional) and serve cold.
