Step 1
Boil potatoes in salted water until a knife slides through easily, 8–10 minutes.
Step 2
Add eggs to the same pot 3 minutes before potatoes finish, so they boil 7 minutes total.
Step 3
Drain potatoes and eggs. Let cool slightly, then halve potatoes and quarter eggs.
Step 4
Whisk lemon juice, olive oil, and 1 minced anchovy until emulsified; season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Toss greens with half the dressing on a platter or into a bowl.
Step 6
Arrange potatoes, eggs, tuna, and remaining anchovies over greens.
Step 7
Drizzle remaining dressing over the top. Serve immediately.
