Salade Nicoise Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Wash and dry the lettuce and separate the leaves. Crisp them in the refrigerator.
  • Tip and tail the green beans and cut in half if they are very long. Boil them in salted water just until tender; drain and refresh in iced cold water to keep their bright color and chill.
  • Peel the tomatoes and cut each into 4-6 wedges. Peel the eggs and cut into 4 wedges each. Drain the tuna.
  • Drain the green beans and dice the cold peeled potatoes. Keep in separate bowls. Dress the green beans in their bowl and dress the diced potatoes in their bowl.
  • Arrange the butter lettuce leaves on 4 chilled dinner plates. Arrange the green beans and potatoes in small mounds on the lettuce. Alternate tomato and egg wedges around the perimeter of the plates. Divide up the tuna, flaking slightly, and mound it up in the center. Cross 2 anchovies in the center of each plate and distribute the olives over the salads.
  • Serve immediately with hot Crusty French bread and extra vinaigrette on the side.
