Ingredients
For the garlic bread croutons
- 1 medium loaf Ciabatta bread
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 garlic cloves minced
- pinch of salt
For the Caesar salad dressing
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp chopped anchovies
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 garlic clove
- 2-3 tsp fresh lemon juice
- ½ cup (125ml) oil I used a combination of olive oil and canola oil.
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- salt and black pepper to taste
For the salad
- 300 g (10oz) lettuce leaves
- 100 g (3oz) Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Slice the bread into bite-size pieces then toss with olive oil, crushed garlic, dried garlic and a pinch of salt.
- Toss well then transfer to a baking sheet and bake in a hot oven until crisp and golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, finely chopped anchovies, minced garlic, a teaspoon Dijon mustard and freshly squeezed lemon juice together.
- Slowly drizzle in the oil whilst whisking continuously until the mixture is emulsified, thick and a pale yellow, exactly how you would for homemade mayo.
- Add the Parmesan cheese then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To make the salad, spoon the dressing into the bottom of a large serving bowl.
- Add the lettuce leaves and toss well.
- Add the croutons and Parmesan shavings then serve.
