  • 1 small red onion very finely sliced
  • 24 black olives stoned (pitted)
  • 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley

  • 6 large fresh tuna steaks or 12 small
  • Extra olive oil

Instructions

  • Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water until just soft. Drain and put in a large dish.

  • Add the tomatoes, onion, olives, half the parsley, salt and pepper.
  • Peel and halve the eggs and mix into the salad. Add the anchovies.
  • Mix the oil, lemon juice and garlic together and sprinkle all over the salad.
  • Finally, brush the tuna fish with a little oil and grill (broil) or char-grill until just cooked through.
  • Place each steak on a bed of salad, sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve or chill until needed.
  • For a more economical alternative, cook 540 g (180 oz) of fresh tuna then flake the flesh into the salad.
