Salad with canned tuna, cucumbers and red beans

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make tuna salad? Prepare your food. Wash and peel the vegetables well. Rinse the beans under cool water in a colander and let the water drain. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes and immediately cool under cold water. If the skin of the cucumbers is tender, you can leave it. It is better to cut off the skin from rough, “aged” cucumbers.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place the tuna meat into a deep salad bowl or bowl, mashing it with a fork, but not very finely. Do not drain all the liquid from the canned food; a little can be added to the dressing. Add beans, finely chopped egg and chopped cucumber.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the Chinese cabbage into large cubes and the onion into thin feathers. Place everything in a bowl with the salad, add a little salt and mix.

4. STEP 4

   

   Preparing the refueling. Finely chop the garlic. Grind it with salt and pepper in a separate bowl. Pour the oil and lemon juice into a bowl, stir until the salt dissolves. You can add some liquid from canned tuna to the dressing.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour the dressing into the salad and mix gently. Serve the salad immediately. If you plan to serve it later, cover it with a lid and put it in the refrigerator without dressing. And refuel just before serving. But keep it in the refrigerator for a short time, as the vegetables give juice.
