Nicoise salad originates from Nice on the French Riviera, traditionally built from whatever fresh produce was available at the local market that day.
A classic salad from Nice combining tuna, boiled eggs, green beans, olives and tomatoes over lettuce, dressed simply in olive oil — a fresh taste of the French Riviera.
Arrange lettuce as a base on a large platter.
Top with green beans, tomatoes and olives.
Flake tuna over the top and add quartered boiled eggs.
Drizzle generously with olive oil, season, and serve immediately.
Use good quality tinned tuna in oil, or freshly seared tuna, for the best flavour and texture.
