This Easy Tuna Rice Salad is so simple to make, but tastes great. Perfect for a light lunch, as part of a picnic or at a potluck/buffet. Alternatively, serve with a green side salad and some crusty bread for a more substantial meal.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

150 g white rice ((I like to use basmati rice, but long-grain works well too.))
1 small red, orange or yellow pepper (diced)
ΒΌ cucumber (diced)
10 cherry tomatoes (diced)
6 small mushrooms (diced)
145 g tin tuna (drained)
200 g tin sweetcorn (drained)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar ((or apple cider vinegar))
Salt and pepper to taste
4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Cook the rice according to the packet instructions, drain in a sieve and then cool by running cold water over the rice. Rest the sieve on the saucepan to drain the rice fully.
  • While the rice is cooking and draining, make the dressing. Put the mustard, white wine vinegar, salt and pepper in an old jam jar (or similar) and stir to mix together. Add the olive oil and then screw on the lid of the jar and shake to combine.
  • Chop up all the vegetables into small pieces and put in a large bowl, add the tuna and sweetcorn and the cooled drained rice and stir well to combine
  • Add the dressing and stir well again.
  • This can be served immediately or put in the fridge to serve later. I like to serve it with a little green salad - tossed in the remains of the dressing and with a big chunk of crusty white bread.

TUNA RICE SALAD



Tuna Rice Salad image

Most of my recipes-including this one-were developed from my experiments with leftovers. This salad is also delicious prepared with leftover chicken or turkey instead of tuna.

TUNA MAYO RICE BOWL



Tuna Mayo Rice Bowl image

This homey dish takes comforting canned tuna to richer, silkier heights. Mayonnaise helps to hold the tuna together and toasted sesame oil lends incomparable nuttiness. You can adjust the seasonings to your taste: Use as much or as little soy sauce as you'd like for a savory accent. You can lean into the nuttiness of this rice bowl by sowing the top with toasted sesame seeds, or amp up the savoriness with furikake or scallions. A staple of home cooking in Hawaii and South Korea (where it is sometimes called deopbap), this simple meal is a workday workhorse.
