Hector' s Tuna Salad A.K.A Black Eyed Tuna


This is not the actual name of the dish, I just named it after a good friend of mine who is making it. Since you don't know him, you can use the alternative name.
You will need:
350g black eyed beans
200g tuna steak in a tin
dill
parsley
1 medium red onion -thinly chopped
a handful of capers
and for the sauce:
3 tablespoons olive oil
2/3 mayonaisse
1/3 mustard
juice of one lemon
...and as Hector says, you will need to put a bit of soul in it as well.
It is actually very simple.
Boil the beans in water for a good two hours and set aside to cool down.
In a bowl mix the chopped onion, dill and parsley, tuna and capers.
In a cup prepare the sauce with all ingredients apart from the lemon and stir then empty in the bowl and mix all very well. add the lemon juice minutes before you serve it.
