Great salad! I added a little bit of honey to the dressing, some fresh dill to the potatoes, and capers. I didn’t have any tuna but I used some tinned mackerel in olive oil and it worked out wonderfully. Love it!

Such a delicious recipe. It's a bit of work getting all the different ingredients together, but the end result is very flavourful and tasty. The dressing really packs a flavour punch.
