Cooking

Ingredients :

  • 1 tin White Germon Tuna fillet in oil
  • 1 small tin sweetcorn (140 g)
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 2 tomatoes or a dozen cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 red onion
  • 1 ripe but firm avocado
  • 2 eggs
  • 150 g fresh or frozen green beans
  • A few black or green olives
  • 1 handful arugula or baby greens
  • Fresh herbs: chives, parsley or basil

For the sauce :

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1 tsp wholegrain mustard
  • Salt, pepper

Preparation :

  1. Trim the green beans and plunge them into boiling salted water together with the eggs. Cook for 9 to 10 minutes, until the beans are tender but still crunchy. Immediately plunge the beans and eggs into iced water to set the color and stop the cooking. Drain.
  2. Dice the tomatoes, avocado and cucumber. Thinly slice the red onion.
  3. Drain the White Germon Tuna and the corn.
  4. Shell the cooled eggs and cut them into quarters.
  5. In a salad bowl, arrange the arugula as a base, then add all the ingredients, including the cooled green beans.
  6. Prepare the vinaigrette (oil + vinegar + mustard, salt and pepper), and pour it over at the last moment.
  7. Toss gently and sprinkle with fresh herbs just before serving.

Bonus tips - Chef's advice:

  • Breton twist: For an elegant, iodized touch, replace the olive oil in the dressing with a few drops of Groix & Nature Lobster Oil. It enhances the tuna and adds finesse to the whole dish.
  • Perfect avocado: Add it just before serving to prevent it from browning. A squeeze of lemon juice can also slow down oxidation.
  • Plan ahead: Prepare the salad in advance, but add the dressing and avocado at the last moment to preserve freshness and texture.
