Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the potatoes.
- Halve the baby potatoes (quarter larger potatoes). Trim the green beans.
- When the water is boiling, add the green beans and cook until just tender, 4-6 mins. Once tender, remove from the pot.
- Add the potatoes to the water, lower the heat to medium and cook until fork-tender, 15-20 mins.
- Drain in a sieve. Toss the potatoes with half the oregano (per 2P) and a knob of butter.
2
- Boil another pot of water over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, gently add the egg (1 per person) to the water. Simmer gently for 4-6 mins for a soft boiled egg.
- Once cooked to your preference, remove from the pot and add to a bowl of cold water—this will stop it cooking any more!
- Once cooled, carefully peel the egg and quarter lenghthways.
3
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
- Drain the tuna in a sieve.
- Trim the cucumber, then halve lengthways. Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
- Halve the tomatoes. Season the cucumber, green beans, and tomato with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of oil.
- Mix together the vinegar and mustard with 1 tbsp oil (per 2P). Add the shallot and tuna and season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
- Trim the baby gem, separate the leaves, and place them on one side of your plate.
- Spoon the tuna and dressing into the leaves.
- Arrange the baby potatoes, green beans, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and egg in rows next to the lettuce cups to make a beautifully plated salad.
- Scatter the crispy onions over the top.
TIP: If you're in a hurry, you can simply toss all ingredients together and serve.
