Method

Blend tapenade ingredients except pepper and half the basil in a food processor until roughly chopped.

Combine dressing ingredients in a jar and shake until emulsified.

Place torn lettuce, beans, capers, potatoes, and tomatoes in a large bowl.

Heat a griddle pan and rub the tuna steaks with olive oil and seasoning.

Fry tuna for two minutes on each side until cooked to your preference.

Toss the salad with two tablespoons of dressing and arrange on a platter with the halved eggs.

Slice the tuna diagonally, place over the salad, sprinkle with chives, and serve with fougasse and tapenade.
