Ingredients

• 1 head Lettuce
• 2 Tomatoes
• 1/2 Cucumber
• 1 can White asparagus
• 1 can Tuna in olive oil
• 2 Hard-boiled eggs
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tbsp Sherry vinegar

Steps

1. Tear the lettuce into a wide bowl and arrange the tomatoes, cucumber, asparagus, tuna, and quartered eggs on top in neat sections.
2. Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, and a good pinch of salt into a simple dressing.
3. Dress the salad just before serving and toss gently so the eggs stay intact.
4. Taste a leaf for salt and add another pinch if the tomatoes taste flat — this salad needs confident seasoning to sing.
5. Serve with bread — in Spain, no salad arrives without it.
