- Put the eggs into a pan of cold water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 8 mins. Put the beans into a steamer or heatproof colander, cover and steam over the egg pan for 4-5 mins or until just tender and very bright green. Meanwhile, whisk the dressing ingredients together and season with salt and pepper. Cool the eggs under cold water, then peel.
- Heat a frying pan and add the oil. When hot, tip in the breadcrumbs and whole garlic clove. Stir for about 3 mins until toasty and golden, and just infused with the garlic. Chop the eggs, chives and anchovies and mix together.
- Toss the beans with the dressing while still warm, then scoop onto a serving dish. Top with the anchovy mix and the crumbs, then spoon over any dressing left in the bowl.
