Sezamo
O salată italiană completă și răcoritoare de vară, cu paste orzo al dente, bucăți fragede de ton, capere, roșii cherry dulci, măsline negre și dressing aromat de lămâie cu ulei de măsline.
Preparation method
Cooking the orzo pasta
Bring a pot with plenty of water to a boil and add sea salt. When the water comes to a boil, add the orzo pasta and cook according to the package instructions (about 8-10 minutes) until al dente.
Drain the cooked pasta and rinse quickly under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Leave to drain well and drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
Preparing the vegetables and dressing
Wash the cherry tomatoes and cut them into halves or quarters. Peel and finely chop the red onion. Rinse the capers if they are packed in salt and drain well. Slice the black olives, and finely chop the fresh parsley.
Chef's tip
If you want an extra touch of freshness, you can add a few fresh basil leaves or a little grated unwaxed lemon zest to the dressing.
The salad keeps wonderfully in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days, making it ideal for lunch at the office.
