Niçoise salad is a French salad made with boiled new potatoes and green beans, cherry tomatoes, red onion, romaine lettuce and tuna. The dressing combines lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, garlic, basil and olive oil. Black olives and quartered hard-boiled eggs go on top. It is filling enough to serve for lunch.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Potatoes and green beans

    Boil the unpeeled potatoes in salted water for about 7 minutes. Add the green beans, cut in half, and cook together for about 5 more minutes, until tender. Drain, cut the potatoes into quarters and let cool slightly.

  2. Eggs

    Hard-boil the eggs for about 10 minutes, then cool, peel and cut into quarters.

  3. Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, pressed garlic and chopped basil. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is smooth.

  4. Salad

    Place the potatoes, green beans, halved tomatoes, finely chopped onion and torn lettuce in a large bowl and toss with the dressing. Drizzle the tuna with 1 tsp olive oil and add it to the salad. Arrange the eggs and olives on top.

Tip: Toss the potatoes with the dressing while they are still warm so they absorb it better. Rinse the cooked green beans under cold water to keep them green and crisp.
