Ingredients
1/2 pound tiny green beans
1/2 pound tiny ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips
1 English cucumber, cut into thick strips
1 ounce canned anchovies, drained
1/2 cup pitted black olives
7 ounces water-packed canned tuna, drained and flaked
1/2 cup sliced water chestnuts
4 hard-cooked eggs, quartered
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
Pinch salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
Blanch the beans briefly until tender-crisp and refresh in cold running water. Pat dry.
Mix the tomatoes, pepper, and cucumber in a large salad bowl or place in separate piles around the inside of the bowl. Arrange the anchovies, olives, tuna, water chestnuts, and eggs over the top.
Make a dressing by vigorously mixing the oil, vinegar, and garlic with the salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and sprinkle with the parsley.
