Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Canned tuna (in olive oil, drained)
- 300 grams Baby potatoes
- 200 grams Green beans (trimmed)
- 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 2 pieces Hard-boiled eggs
- 100 grams Butter lettuce
- 1 tablespoon Capers
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the baby potatoes until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly. Cut them into halves or quarters, depending on size.
In the same pot of boiling water, blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and immediately transfer to an ice water bath to stop the cooking and retain their vibrant color. Drain again after cooling.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and the hard-boiled eggs. Set aside.
Prepare the dressing by whisking together Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Gradually drizzle in the olive oil while whisking until emulsified.
On a large plate or serving platter, arrange a bed of butter lettuce as the base.
Neatly arrange the cooled potatoes, green beans, cherry tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and drained tuna in sections atop the lettuce.
Scatter the capers over the assembled salad.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad, or serve alongside for individual preference.
Finish the plate with a sprinkle of black pepper and serve immediately.
