FESTIVE TUNA SALAD
Steps:
- 1. Prepare the tuna: In a shallow bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add the tuna, coat well and let rest for 15 minutes, turning once.
- 2. Prepare the salsa: In a separate bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients except the chopped cilantro. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 1 hour.
- 3. Shortly before serving, sear the tuna in a nonstick skillet over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side, adding any remaining marinade or extra oil, if necessary. Turn the fish and sear for 3 minutes on the second side, for medium-rare. With a spatula, remove the tuna steaks to the center of 4 dinner plates.
- 4. Divide the salsa (with the juices) equally atop the tuna. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
FESTIVE TUNA SALAD
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

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.
