Recipe Salade Nicoise

Ingredients :

• Dressing:
• 3 tbsp cider vinegar
• 2 tbsp finely minced shallots
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 8 tbsp olive oil
• 1 anchovy, mashed
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh tarragon
• Salt and pepper
• Salad:
• 4 c Bibb lettuce leaves, roughly torn, tightly packed
• 16 oz tuna packed in olive oil (Italian-style is best for this dish)
• 1/2 lb green beans, blanched*, cooled and stem ends trimmed
• 2 hard-boiled eggs, shelled and quartered
• 1/2 c Nicoise olives, pitted (Kalamata olives are a good substitute)

Method :

1. In a small bowl, stir together the vinegar and shallots; whisk in the mustard. Add the olive oil in a slow stream, whisking constantly, until the mixture is emulsified. Mix in the anchovy and season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisk in the fresh herbs and set aside.
2. To assemble the salad: divide the lettuce between 4 plates. Top each serving with a portion of tuna, green beans, hard-boiled egg and oiliness. Drizzle a little dressing over each, or serve the dressing on the side in a small pitcher. 679 calories per serving, GL=1, Glycals=5
