Author: F9gmjsW2cwc
This salad is possibly one of the tastiest salads I know and is always a favourite with me! Contains no Caesars…
Ingredients
  • 1 crisp lettuce
  • 40 g (2 oz) parmesan cheese, grated or flaked
  • A 50 g (2 oz) can of anchovy fillets in olive oil
For the croutons
  • 40 g (2 oz) of white bread without crusts, cut into cuboids
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
For the dressing
  • 150 ml (½ cup) olive oil

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp mild mustard (Dijon or similar)
  • ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
  1. Prepare the croutons by mixing the pieces of bread with the crushed garlic, the olive oil and the parmesan cheese. Spread out on a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes at 180°C. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
  2. To prepare the dressing, break the egg into a food processor. Add the lime juice, garlic clove, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and two of the anchovy fillets. Whizz until smooth.
