Directions

  • Thoroughly wash the potatoes under running cold water.
  • Put in a steamer and cook for 40 minutes, or boil them for 30 minutes in salted boiling water. Prick with a skewer to check if they’re well done: the skewer will go through effortlessly if the potatoes are completely cooked.
  • When the potatoes are ready, remove them, let them cool down, remove the skin  (if the potatoes are very small you don’t need to remove the skin)  and cut in thick slices.
  • In a small bowl combine olive oil,vinegar and mustard (vinaigrette).
  • Place the potatoes in a dish, season with the vinaigrette, a pinch of salt, chopped parsley and scallion (or chive or garlic).
  • Open the tuna can discard oil and dispose tuna in the center and decorate with your favorite mayo. It can be served both cold and warm.
