Preparation

1. Through the root end, quarter the lettuce. Rinse, and pat dry with some paper towel. Put each quarter in a shallow bowl or large plate. Place your drained tuna in a bowl, and use a fork to flake into bite-size pieces – scatter over the lettuce. Next, scatter your potatoes, pepper, beans, tomatoes & artichoke hearts. Take an egg half and arrange on the side of each plate. Sprinkle each dish with olives, anchovies & capers.
2. In a bowl, mix your vinegar, garlic and mustard. Slowly whisk in the oil until it has thickened. Season with salt, pepper & herbs according to individual preferences. Drizzle evenly over the salads, and enjoy!
