a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Chop the potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel).
c) Pop the chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
d) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 18-20 mins. Turn halfway through.
e) Meanwhile, trim and halve the green beans. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
a) Boil a half-full kettle. Pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan and bring to the boil.
b) Boil the eggs (see pantry for amount) for 7-8 mins. Once cooked, drain and allow to cool. Once cooled, remove the egg shells. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.
c) While the eggs boil, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan on medium-high heat.
d) Once hot, add the green beans and stir-fry until starting to char, 2-3 mins.
a) Stir the garlic into the green beans, then turn the heat down to medium and cook for 1 min. Add a splash of water and immediately cover with a lid or some foil. Cook until the beans are tender, 4-5 mins. Remove the pan from the heat.
b) In a large bowl, combine the baby leaf mix, olives, tuna, garlic green beans, roast potatoes and French dressing. Toss to coat, then divide between 2 serving bowls.
d) Chop the boiled eggs in half and top each bowl with 2 halves to finish.
Enjoy!
