Tips to prepare tuna potato salad
I love add cucumber in my potato salad for a fresh and crunchy consistency. To prevent your salad from becoming a soil, I highly recommend leaving for a few minutes with a little salt and squeezing excess water from cucumber before adding to the rest of the ingredients (see details in the recipe).
The same goes for canned tuna. Make sure to download the liquid well before adding the salad!


Ingredients for this recipe
- Mini cucumber – thinly cut or use a mandolin to cut.
- Rust potatoes
- Tamari are sauce
- Avocado mayonnaise – or normal mayonnaise
- Yogurt without unsweetened milk – I use almond milk yogurt
- Bonito Flakes – The better, the better. Bonito adds a flavor full of smoked humans.
- Canned tuna: make sure to drain well before mixing.
- Sesame oil
- Salt and Pepe
Optional seasonings:
- Thin slices shawls
- Pepe Shichimi
How to prepare the tuna potato salad
1. Come on cucumber. Place the sliced cucumber in a bowl and sprinkle the salt. Leave sitting for about 3 minutes, then squeeze the water from the cucumber. Set aside.
2. Cook the potatoes. Peel the potatoes and cut into cubes from a thumb. Put them in a large hood and cover with water. Cook the potato cubes for 10-12 minutes or until they are soft but not soft. Drain using a filter.




3. Add the condiments. In a large bowl, place the cooked potato, the mayonnaise, the yogurt, the tamary soy sauce and the Bonito flakes. He throws well, slightly crushing the potato with a fork.

Frequent questions
You can replace other vegetables such as corn beans, chopped carrots or red sliced onion. I recommend keeping the volume around ⅔ cup for a good balance with the rest of the ingredients.
The tuna potato salad can be chilled for a maximum of 3-4 days, strictly covered. I do not recommend freezing because the consistency of the potato changes significantly.
