Let's see what we need for the preparation of the Potato and green bean salad with tuna and cherry tomatoes. Ingredients 120 g cherry tomatoes 400 g Potatoes 160 g Tuna in oil 300 g Green beans Extra virgin olive oil Fine salt Parsley Preparation Start the preparation of the potato and green bean salad with tuna and cherry tomatoes by cooking the tubers. To shorten the cooking time of the potatoes, remove the skin and then cut them into chunks. Put a pot with water on the stove and when it boils, pour in the potatoes. Blanch them for about 10 – 15 minutes, when cooked, drain them and let them cool. Then wash the green beans under running water, remove the ends and divide them into two or three pieces. Cook them in salted water for about 10 minutes (if you want you can also leave them whole). When cooked, drain them and immerse them in cold water to preserve a bright green color. When the potatoes are also cold, start assembling the salad. In a large bowl, pour the potatoes, green beans, then add the cherry tomatoes to the rest of the ingredients. Drain the tuna and add it to the rest of the ingredients. Wash and finely chop a sprig of fresh parsley and season the salad. Finally, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and season with a pinch of salt. Mix everything together and serve the potato and green bean salad with tuna and cherry tomatoes to your diners. To enrich the recipe you can add grated lemon zest or apple cider vinegar. For a more delicious version you can add a few tablespoons of mayonnaise (this is my homemade recipe).
