Tuna pasta salad "Rajak"

Lean tuna salad in oil, with vegetables and pasta.

Preparation steps

  • Pour water into a large bowl and add salt. When it boils, add corn, peas and carrots. Cook until soft (try). If frozen variants of this already prepared vegetable from the bag are used, about 10-15 minutes is enough.
  • When the vegetables are almost done add a pinch of basil and a pinch of spice. Add pasta to all this. Cook as needed to soften the pasta (try)
  • When the pasta is ready, remove from the heat, strain everything from the water and put it back in the same bowl. Keep the sickle out of the fire, because cold preparation follows. Drain the tuna from the oil (not completely, but just a little so that there is not too much oil) and add to the sickle. Then add 8 finely chopped olives and mix everything together until the ingredients are combined.
  • When we have mixed all the ingredients together, find a suitable ceramic serving bowl and carefully re-shape and shape everything into it. Add one whole olive on top of the served salad, and decorate with a pinch of fresh parsley (chopped with a knife).

Serving

The salad in the described form is served warm, immediately after preparation. If we want to serve this salad cold, we can also prepare a cold sauce of: 60g of lean mayonnaise, half a lemon juice and 5-6 higher prices of garlic (finely chopped). Mix this sauce with the other ingredients in a sieve immediately after preparation, and only then decorate in a ceramic bowl (as described in preparation step 4). Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until serving.
