How to Make A Perfect Salade Nicoise
- Wash and cut potatoes into halves or quarters if needed. Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
- While potatoes are cooking, hard-boil the eggs. Once cooked, cool in ice water, peel and quarter.
- Add the green beans to the same saucepan and boil for 7-10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse immediately under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool.
- Arrange the cooled potatoes, green beans, olives, quartered hard-boiled eggs, and sliced tomatoes on a large platter or individual plates.
- Gently spoon the drained tuna on top of the vegetables.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
- Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the vinaigrette emulsifies.
- Stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
- Drizzle the vinaigrette evenly over the salad.
- Top with anchovy fillets, if desired.
