FESTIVE TUNA SALAD



Festive Tuna Salad image

You could serve this as a 1st course for company; it is not your usual mayo/tuna salad. The addition of fresh mushrooms and green peas really does the trick. I usually make a lighter version where I will strain the whey out of some plain yoghurt in a sieve and use 1/3 strained yoghurt and 2/3 mayo. If using this method the yogurt must be drained really well. I add the peas when they are still frozen; they thaw quickly and I like them cold in the salad and they do not get mushy

Time 5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces tuna in water
1/2 cup mayonnaise (or low-fat mayonnaise, or mix of mayo & yoghurt as noted in desciption)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt & pepper
5 ounces fresh mushrooms, diced small (125 g)
1/2 cup green peas (125 g)
4 slices white bread (I served on the side with French Baguette)
2 tomatoes
3 tablespoons fresh dill (optional) or 3 tablespoons parsley (optional)

Steps:

  • Flake the tuna with a fork; add mayo, (yoghurt if using lighter version), lemon juice. Mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Fold in mushrooms and peas; if you add the peas frozen they will thaw quite quickly.
  • If using toast bread - toast bread and add a generous scoop of tuna salad on top; garnish with tomatoes and fresh herbs.
  • If using baquette - add tuna salad to plate and garnish with tomates and fresh herbs, serving bread on the side.

THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.
