Ingredients

Tuna and Egg Chopped Salad

Anchovy Dressing

Method

Tuna and Egg Chopped Salad

  • Heat a griddle pan until very hot. Brush tuna with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper
  • Cook the tuna 2 minutes on each side, keeping it pink on the inside. Remove from the heat. Once cool, break into bite size pieces
  • Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil, add eggs and cook for 7 minutes. Drain and cover with cold water to cool. Once cool, peel and cut into quarters

Tips & Hints:

  • You can replace fresh tuna with chunks of tinned tuna too

Anchovy Dressing

  • Mix the garlic, oil, lemon juice and anchovies in a bowl. Mash the anchovies well with a fork. Pour over the dressing then lightly toss the salad
  • To serve: On a large platter, place the curly lettuce, top with tomatoes, grated carrot, sliced cucumber, olives. Scatter over torn basil leaves, the tuna pieces and boiled eggs.

Tips & Hints:

  • Hard-boiled eggs are easiest to peel right after cooling. Cooling causes the egg to contract slightly in the shell.
  • You can easily replace fresh tuna for canned tuna when convenient.
