This vibrant radish and carrot salad with tuna and capers is a refreshing choice for a light lunch or a sophisticated starter. By soaking the root vegetables in ice water, the radishes gain an extra crunch while the carrot ribbons become beautifully crisp, providing a wonderful textural contrast to the flaky, oil-packed tuna. The zesty dressing, elevated with a touch of Dijon mustard and salty capers, brings a sharp complexity that cuts through the richness of the fish.
As a diabetes-friendly dish, this recipe is naturally low in carbohydrates and high in lean protein and essential healthy fats. It is an excellent option for those seeking a nutritious, heart-healthy meal that does not compromise on flavour. Serve it chilled on warm afternoons, perhaps with a few extra sprigs of flat-leaf parsley for a bright, peppery finish.

Ingredients for Radish and Carrot Salad with Tuna and Capers
1 bunch radishes (about 230g )
2–3 medium carrots (about 230g )
2 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons white wine or Champagne vinegar
3/4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus more
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons capers
110g drained oil-packed canned flaked tuna (about 3/4 cup)
2 tablespoons parsley leaves
How to make Radish and Carrot Salad with Tuna and Capers
Slice radishes into very thin rounds. Using a vegetable peeler, peel carrots lengthwise into long, thin slices. Combine 2 teaspoons salt and 725ml ice water in a medium bowl and soak radishes and carrots for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, pepper, and remaining 1/4 teaspoons salt in a small bowl until combined. Whisk in oil in a slow stream.
Toss radishes, carrots, and capers in a large bowl with just enough vinaigrette to coat. Divide among 4 plates and top with tuna and parsley; drizzle with remaining vinaigrette and top with a few grinds of black pepper.
