Preparation
Step 1
Prepare all the ingredients needed for the salad. For herbs, I used dill; you can also use parsley and young green onion. Peel the avocado and the shallot. Drain the brine from the mozzarella, and remove the tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Rinse all the vegetables and herbs under clean running water.
Step 2
Shred the Napa cabbage into thin strips. Not only the thin young leaves will work for the salad, but also the thicker ones.
Step 3
Cut the ball of mozzarella into small cubes, slice the onion into thin half-rings or rings, and add everything to the cabbage.
Step 4
Dry the tomatoes with paper towels. Cut half of the cherry tomatoes in half, and leave the rest whole; that way the salad will look prettier and more appetizing. Add the tomatoes to the salad bowl.
Step 5
Cut the avocado into small cubes, or you can mash the flesh with a fork into small pieces. Add the avocado to the rest of the ingredients.
Step 6
Break the canned tuna into pieces with a fork and add it to the salad. I used tuna in oil, so I did not dress the finished salad. If you use tuna in its own juice, dress the finished salad with a small amount of vegetable oil or olive oil.
Step 7
The final touches remain. Chop the herbs finely and add them to the salad bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 8
Mix the salad well before serving. Taste it again for salt, and if needed, add a little more. You can serve it to the table.
