Fragrant and satisfying, with a bomb dressing! Spanish salad with tuna and potatoes turns out very appetizing with an interesting aftertaste. I foresee opinions that this is an ordinary Nicoise. It would seem yes, but no! This is a self-sufficient and unique salad with a Mediterranean touch.

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 15 mins

STEP 1
How to make Spanish tuna and potato salad? Prepare all ingredients before cooking. Boil the potatoes in their jackets until tender, cool and peel. Blanch green beans in boiling water for 3 minutes. Choose any salad, but with tender greens. Tuna is best served whole, boneless, rather than shredded.
STEP 2
According to the recipe, the salad is mixed in a common bowl. But you can lay out all the main ingredients on lettuce leaves, which are placed directly on the serving dish. So, wash the salad under running water and shake. Use your hands to tear it into small pieces. Cut the potatoes crosswise and then into slices.
STEP 3
Wash the cherry tomatoes under running water and cut into halves. Peel the onion, cut in half and cut into slices. Add cooled green beans.
STEP 4
Add tuna fillets. Pass the garlic through a press or grate it on a fine grater.
STEP 5
In order for the cumin to better reveal its taste and aroma, I suggest crushing it a little in a mortar.
STEP 6
Add smoked paprika, cumin, salt and hot pepper.
STEP 7
Let's prepare the dressing. To do this, mix extra virgin olive oil and wine vinegar in a gravy boat. Which vinegar to use, white or red, does not matter.
STEP 8
Season the salad and stir. Let sit for 5-10 minutes and then it will be ready to serve.

I bought a can of tuna canned in its own juice and found this recipe on my favorite website. I was interested in the combination of ingredients. Previously, I prepared salads with tuna, vegetables and eggs. But I also tried it with potatoes. I took this recipe as a basis and made a Spanish salad with tuna and potatoes, changing it a little. I replaced the lettuce leaves with parsley, and we don’t really like beans, so we didn’t add them. I boiled the potatoes in advance, but not in their skins, so as not to peel them later) I used regular tomatoes instead of cherry ones. I layered the salad onto two serving plates. The salad turned out delicious! It’s very simple to prepare, but it turns out beautiful, aromatic, and satisfying. The recipe is wonderful! Tuna with tomato, potatoes, onions and herbs is incredibly tasty. Garlic and pepper added spice, vinegar added sourness, and cumin added piquancy. The dressing is amazing! Before serving, I sprinkled the salad with toasted sesame seeds. Savored the Spanish salad with tuna and potatoes for a light dinner. This is a real masterpiece!!! I would like to repeat it, I advise everyone to try it. Many thanks to the author 😊
