Put the eggs in a panful of cold water, bring to the boil for 7 minutes. 3 minutes in, add the beans.

Drain both the beans and eggs; let eggs sit in a bowl under running cold water, and hold the beans in a sieve just under the tap for a moment, too.

Mix the tomatoes and their oil with the sliced olives.

Arrange the lettuce on a serving dish and then top with the tomato-olive mixture, leaving the juices in the bowl.

Add drained tuna and the beans to the dish.

Using the reserved juices left in the tomato mixture's bowl, make the dressing: whisk in the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and sugar and pour over the salad.

Peel and quarter the almost but not quite hard-boiled eggs and add to the salad along with the croutons and basil leaves.
