Dressing

Mix all the dressing ingredients
Prepare the dressing by adding oil, lemon juice or vinegar, chopped green onions, herbs, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.

Salad

Marinate the onion slices
Place thinly sliced onions in a bowl and drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the dressing to allow them to soften and lose some of their sharpness.

Cook the potatoes, slice, and dress
Place the potatoes in a large pot with salted cold water and heat over high heat until boiling. Once the water boils, reduce the heat and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain the cooked potatoes, and while still warm, cut them in half or quarters, depending on their size. Transfer the sliced potatoes to a bowl and drizzle with about a third of the dressing.

Cook the green beans
While the potatoes are cooking, fill a medium-sized pot halfway with water and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. The beans should soften slightly. Drain and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking. You can also shock them in ice water for half a minute.

Arrange the salad on a bed of lettuce
On a serving platter, lay down a layer of lettuce. Add chunks of tuna in the center of the lettuce. Surround the tuna with sliced tomatoes and onions. Arrange the potatoes and green beans in small piles around the edges of the lettuce. Add hard-boiled eggs, olives, and capers.

Drizzle with the remaining dressing
Serve immediately. The salad should be slightly warm or at room temperature.
