This moreish potato salad is served everywhere in Spain as a tapa - probably because it can make all sorts of ingredients that would otherwise have been heading for the bin pay their way. Which is why it's perfect for a pre-payday fix.
Ingredients
  • 3 Maris Piper potatoes, boiled and chilled (or use leftover boiled potatoes)
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • ½ jar pitted green olives, roughly chopped
  • 1 tin tuna
  • ¼ white onion, finely chopped
  • ½ small tin sweetcorn
  • 4-5 tbsp mayonnaise (or more if you like it more creamy)
Instructions
  1. Cut the chilled potatoes into small cubes. Mash the eggs.
  2. Mix the potatoes, eggs and all the other ingredients together in a large bowl. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Chill again and serve.
