Method
- 1
Boil the eggs for 8 minutes, then cool under cold water, peel and slice.
- 2
Split the baguette lengthways and pull out a little of the soft crumb from the lid to make room for the filling.
- 3
Drizzle the cut sides with the olive oil and red wine vinegar so the bread soaks it up.
- 4
Layer the tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, flaked tuna, sliced eggs and black olives along the bottom half.
- 5
Season well with black pepper, close the loaf and press down firmly.
- 6
Wrap tightly in foil or baking paper and leave for at least 15 minutes before cutting into four thick pieces.
