Instructions

Instructions summer salad with beans, hard-boiled eggs and tomatoes

Put the eggs in a pot, cover them with water and put on heat. When the water comes to a boil you have to lower the heat slightly and set the timer for 7 minutes. After this time put your eggs immediately in cold water for about 5 minutes. This will stop the cooking process and make the eggs easier to peel.
Vigorously mix oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, sugar, coriander powder (optional) in a cup. Add crushed garlic and mix again.
Cut the red onion into thin half-moons. Place both the onions and green olives in a bowl and cover with cold water for 5 minutes. In this way you will remove the excess salt from the olives and dilute the strong flavor of the onions.
In a salad bowl, combine the drained and rinsed beans, chopped parsley and diced tomatoes. Peeled and cut into quarters your hard-boiled eggs and add them to the salad. Now add red onions and the chopped olives. In the end add the prepared sauce, mix and serve.
