Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the potatoes in a medium-size saucepan and cover with cold water. Cook over medium heat until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, let cool and cut into quarters. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large, heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil. Add the tuna, sear on all sides, about 3 minutes. Set aside. Toss the potatoes, tomatoes and spinach together.

  3. Step 3

    Combine the tomato juice, anchovy fillets, roasted garlic, salt and pepper to taste in a blender. Blend until smooth. Divide the salad among 4 plates. Top each with some of the tuna. Drizzle the sauce over all and serve immediately.

Made it as instructed and I really loved it. I had to make my own tomato juice since I didn't find any in the grocery store.

Really enjoyed this recipe. I separated the cooked new potatoes from the rest of the salad as I had some particularly good tomatoes and wanted to let those flavours come through. Really fresh, tasty and an incredibly healthy (and quick! so easy!) midweek meal.
