Preparation

Step 1
Add rice to a large pot of boiling salted water. When water returns to boil, cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well. Place rice in a serving bowl, and fold in enough olive oil to keep it from sticking.
Step 2
Stir in red onion, garlic and mint. Fold in cooked tuna. Add white wine and additional oil to taste.
Step 3
Season to taste with salt and pepper; allow to marinate one hour. Check seasonings before serving.
