Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Ingredients
Start by gathering all the ingredients and washing them properly. Make sure to drain the boquerones and chop the albacore tuna into bite-sized pieces.
- 2
Chop the Fennel and Celery
Finely slice the fennel bulb and chop the celery stalks into small pieces. Set them aside in a bowl.
- 3
Prepare the Pickled Pineapple
If your pickled pineapple is not pre-sliced, chop it into small cubes. This will add a sweet and tangy flavor to the dish.
- 4
Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped albacore tuna, boquerones, sliced fennel, chopped celery, and pickled pineapple. Toss gently to mix the ingredients without breaking the tuna.
- 5
Add Peanuts
Chop the peanuts coarsely and add them to the bowl. This will provide a crunchy texture to the dish.
- 6
Prepare the Nem
If using pre-made nem, follow the package instructions to heat them. Alternatively, you can prepare fresh nem by wrapping your choice of fillings in rice paper and frying them until golden brown.

Serve with Lime
Cut the limes into wedges and serve alongside the salad. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the salad just before eating for an extra zesty flavor.
