It was my youngest son’s birthday on Sunday. After getting him his present, we headed down to his favorite Malaysian restaurant to have a late lunch. We had so much to eat that by dinnertime, everyone just agreed to have a light snack. I made this Thai tuna salad that my husband and I had two weeks ago. I stumbled upon this recipe when I was looking through this Thai cookbook that my niece had lent me. She bought this cookbook when she was in Thailand.
Thai tuna salad is a light, refreshing and an easy dish to make. The ingredients are fresh and easily accessible. It can be eaten with lettuce, celery, hot steamed rice or crackers. I even put it on my sandwich and had it for lunch at work the next day 🙂
