  5. 100g cherry tomatoes, halved
  6. 100g cucumber, sliced
  7. 1 small red onion, thinly sliced

Method

  1. Boil the eggs in a pot of water for about 10 minutes until hard-boiled. Once done, peel and cut them in half. Set aside.

  3. In a pot of boiling water, cook the prawn cutlets for 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink and opaque. Drain and set aside to cool. Once cooled, slice into smaller pieces if desired.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cucumber, green beans, red onion, cherry tomatoes, olives, and boiled potatoes.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
  6. Assemble the salad by arranging the prawn cutlets, boiled eggs, and fresh vegetables on top of the mixed greens.
  7. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Garnish with fresh parsley.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and vibrant Prawn Nicoise Salad!

Chef's Tip

For a fresh and balanced Nicoise salad, allow the potatoes and prawns to cool slightly before assembling so the greens stay crisp and vibrant. Cook the prawns only until just opaque to keep them tender and naturally sweet, and dress the salad lightly so the delicate seafood flavours remain the hero of the dish. The combination of creamy eggs, briny olives, fresh vegetables, and tangy Dijon dressing creates a classic French-style salad that is both light and satisfying.
