Not Quite Niçoise

Not Quite Niçoise The only bit missing is the anchovies - you could use an anchovy substitute (secret recipe on the site).

Servings: 2 yield(s)
Ingredients
  • 250 g new Potatoes
  • 125 g baby Green Beans - topped
  • 2 cup mixed Salad Leaves
  • 100 g Cherry Tomatoes - halved
  • 2 hard-boiled Eggs - peeled and quartered
  • 100 g small Black Olives
  • 0.33 cup Vinaigrette dressing (See NOTE)
Instructions
  1. Place the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with 2.5cm of cold water. Place on a high heat until the pot comes to a rolling boil. Cover the pan and remove from the heat. After 10 minutes remove the eggs and place in a pan of cold water.
  2. Meanwhile, bring 3cm of water to the boil in another pan. Add the beans and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until just tender. Remove and place in a pan of cold water.
  3. Boil the potatoes until just tender – about 12 minutes. Alternatively, place them in a suitable container, cover and microwave for 7 minutes. When cool, cut into quarters.
