Salade niçoise

The famous salad from Nice — tuna, jammy eggs, crisp green beans, tomatoes, olives and an anchovy vinaigrette, arranged on a platter rather than tossed. A complete lunch from one pot of water.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Lower the eggs into boiling water and cook for 9 minutes, then move them straight into ice-cold water and peel.

  2. 2

    Blanch the trimmed green beans in the same boiling water, well salted, for 4 minutes, then plunge them into cold water.

  3. 3

    Make the vinaigrette: mash two anchovy fillets to a paste, then whisk in the mustard, vinegar, olive oil and plenty of black pepper.

  4. 4

    Arrange everything on a large platter in separate groups: beans, halved tomatoes, onion rings, chunks of drained tuna, quartered eggs, olives and the remaining anchovies.

  5. 5

    Spoon the vinaigrette over everything and bring the platter to the table — a niçoise is composed, never tossed.
