How To Make Caesar Salad
The Caesar salad is delicious on its own for lunch or a light meal, along with making the perfect side for your favourite dinner, served with Golden Croutons and a homemade dressing this recipe is sure to impress
Ingredients
- 1 whole free range egg
- 1 free range egg yolk
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ¼ – ½ tsp honey
- 1 – 1 ¼ cups The Good Oil
- 3-4 tsp lemon juice to taste
- Zest of lemon (optional)
- 1 tbsp finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 baby cos or romaine lettuce
- 6 rashers free range bacon
- 1 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
Method (Dressing)
- Blend all ingredients, except oil, lemon juice and Parmesan in a food processor for about 1 minute until well combined and frothy. Keep the blender running on low speed, then drip the oil in slowly (pouring the oil from a squeeze bottle or measuring jug is easier).
- Make sure you allow each addition to incorporate into the egg mixture before adding more.
- As more oil is incorporated you can add the oil a little more quickly, working up to a slow stream. You will see the mixture begin to thicken. Add lemon juice, zest and parmesan to taste. Season with salt & pepper.
Method (Salad)
- Cook bacon in a hot pan with The Good Oil and allow to cool.
- Separate lettuce leaves, rinse and dry. Lay on a serving platter.
- Top with rashers of crispy bacon and shavings of Parmesan. Sprinkle with (previously prepared) croutons. Drizzle with (previously prepared) Caesar dressing and enjoy.
