Add the oil in a thin, slow stream, while the blender is running, until a thick emulsion forms.
Blender
💡The thin stream is everything: fat that goes in too fast can't bind, and the sauce breaks. For mayonnaise and hollandaise, if this happens, start with a fresh yolk and slowly add the broken sauce to it; if the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water.
6
Add the lemon juice and stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
7
Add the mayonnaise and the rest of the lemon juice.
8
Add the onion.
9
Add the chopped avocado flesh and the parsley, salt and black pepper and mix gently.
10
Fill the halves of the avocado with the tuna salad and top with the cherry tomatoes.
