Oil-Poached Tuna Salad

Ingredients for Oil-Poached Tuna Salad

• 240ml dried flageolet or navy beans, soaked overnight, drained, or one 425g can navy beans, rinsed

• Koshersalt

• 450g green and/or wax beans

• 725ml olive oil

• 2 sprigs rosemary

• 2 garlic cloves

• 110g bigeye or albacore tuna steaks (about 1" thick)

• Nymalen svartpeppar

• 4 anchovies packed in oil, drained, finely chopped

• 1 liten schalottenlök, finhackad

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 1/4 cup (or more) fresh lemon juice

• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill plus small sprigs for serving

• 150g small Sun Gold or cherry tomatoes, halved

• 110g Kalamata olives, pitted, halved

• A deep-fry thermometer

Bring flageolet beans and 950ml water to a boil in a large saucepan, reduce heat, and simmer until beans are tender, 50-60 minutes; season with salt. Let beans cool; drain. Transfer to a medium bowl. (Do not cook canned beans.)

Cook green beans in another large saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a colander set in a bowl of ice water. Let cool; drain and set aside. Wipe saucepan dry.

Heat oil, rosemary, and garlic in same saucepan over medium-low heat until deep-fry thermometer registers 71°C. Season tuna with salt and pepper and cook in oil until opaque except for a bit of pink in the centre, about 4 minutes per side. Using a slotted spatula, transfer tuna to a plate. Let poaching oil cool, then remove rosemary and garlic. Set aside 1/4 cup oil.

Whisk anchovies, shallot, parsley, lemon juice, mustard, chopped dill, and reserved poaching oil in a small bowl; season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. Add some vinaigrette to bowl with flageolet beans and toss to coat.

Break tuna into large pieces and arrange on a platter with flageolet and green beans, tomatoes, and olives. Top with a few dill sprigs and serve with remaining vinaigrette alongside.

DO AHEAD: Tuna can be made 1 day ahead. Return fish to cooled oil, cover, and chill. Serve at room temperature.
