Method
- 1
Boil the new potatoes for 15 minutes until tender. Blanch the green beans for 3 minutes, then refresh in cold water. Soft-boil the eggs for 7 minutes, then peel and halve.
- 2
Whisk together the Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and olive oil to make the dressing. Season well.
- 3
Rub the tuna steaks with a little olive oil and season. Sear in a hot griddle pan for 90 seconds each side so they remain pink in the centre.
- 4
Arrange the potatoes, beans, tomatoes, olives, and eggs on a large platter. Slice the tuna and lay on top, then drizzle generously with the dressing.
