Nicoise salad

Method:

1. Mix the onions with the vinegar and olive oil and set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight 
2. Boil the potatoes until a fork can be inserted easily, then drain and set aside to cool.  When cool cut into quarters 
3. Boil the green beans for 2 minutes, then drain and cool quickly in cold water to stop them discolouring 
4. Place onions with vinegar and oil, cooked potatoes and beans, tuna, olives and salad leaves in a large bowl and mix well then serve 

Tips:

• To prepare this salad a day ahead, just leave the salad leaves out of step 4 and refrigerate in a sealed container.  Mix the salad leaves through just before serving. 
• Add a couple of boiled eggs for extra protein. 
• Add any other seasonal salad vegetables including tomatoes, cucumber or capsicum.
