- 2 garlic cloves, peeled
- 120ml cream
- Juice of half a lemon
Method
- Lay the bacon rashers on a lined tray and bake at 190 degrees celcius until crispy.
- Cut the cos into wedges, then lay onto a serving plate. Next, halve the boiled eggs and nestle amongst the lettuce.
- Sprinkle over the crostini, followed by the bacon pieces.
- To make the dressing, place the olive oil, anchovy/worchester, garlic, cream and lemon juice in a blender and process until smooth and creamy but ensuring not to overblend*. Season to taste.
- Dollop the dressing over the salad and serve immediately.
Tips
- *If your dressing becomes too thick, use a spoon and stir in boiling water until you reach a thinner consistency.
