Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- ½ clove garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 6 tbsp light olive oil
- 150 g new potatoes
- 75 g green beans, topped
- 2 eggs
- 150 g MSC certified albacore tuna fillet
- 3 heads of little gem lettuce, leaves separated
- 8 cherry tomatoes, halved or in quarters
- 1 tbsp Taggiasca olives
- 1 red onion, in rings
- Oil for frying
- Salt and pepper
Method
- Prepare the dressing by shaking the mustard, garlic, vinegar, oil and a pinch of salt in a closed jar until well-mixed. Set the dressing aside.
- Place the unpeeled potatoes in a pot of cold water to cover with a bit of salt. Cook 15-20 minutes until tender and allow to cool slightly.
- In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans 4-5 minutes until just tender. Drain the beans and rinse with cold water.
- Now use the same water to boil the eggs for 6 minutes until the yolks are almost but not quite set. Remove the eggs from the pot and shock under cold running water immediately. Cut the eggs into halves or quarters.
- Take a grill or frying pan and place over medium heat. Coat both sides of the tuna in oil and season with a pinch of salt. Grill or fry both sides 2-3 minutes without moving. Flip halfway through. Remove the tuna from the pan and cut into strips half a centimetre thick.
- Take a platter and cover with the lettuce leaves, potatoes, green beans, tomato pieces, olives, red onion, tuna and the eggs. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Serve with the dressing.
