- Blanch the beans in salted water until al dente. Drop into iced water, drain and toss in 1 tsp of the oil. Whisk the red wine vinegar with the mustard, season, and pour in the rest of the oil while whisking. Stir in the capers, herbs and shallot.
- Just before serving, reheat the beans. Bring 5cm of water to a simmer in a shallow pan with the white wine vinegar. Crack each egg into a cup and gently slide into the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until set. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. Divide the beans between 4 plates, top with an egg and pour dressing over each.
