Instructions

Chef’s suggestions:

(1.) Steam the beans for 2 minutes or until just tender (or microwave for a similar time in 1 tablespoon water on high) and leave to cool for a few minutes. (2.) Meanwhile, grill the tuna for 1–2 minutes a side until nicely browned but still a little pink inside; cut into 2–3 pieces for each serving and set aside. (3.) Arrange the lettuce in two serving bowls with the potatoes, cooked beans, and tomato. Place the tuna on top. (4.) Garnish the salads with the onions, olives and cucumber,pour the dressing on top and serve.

• You can use frozen tuna, but make sure it is thoroughly defrosted before you cook it. • For quick preparation, if you have no leftover readycooked potato, chop up uncooked potatoes and steam for 8–10 minutes. • For vegetarian, replace the tuna steak with medium tofu or tempeh.
