PINEAPPLE, TUNA AND RICE SALAD
In France, we tend to like cold rice salad especially with tuna OR pineapple, it makes a lovely dish very rapidly. I do think that this kind of sweet and sour salad is really inviting don’t you think so? It is very well balanced and full of flavors. I do like to do it for my French buffet with a chutney I brought back from London… Very easy it is ALWAYS the dish which is finished first. Do not ask me why…;) Do not hesitate to add anything you fancy or some leftover… Perfect and yummy for a lazy dinner!
Wine pairing : Saint Chinian (White) from Languedoc-Roussillon.
