  • Crispy green salad with garlic anchovies dressing

Introduction

I created this salad together with the chefs at Rossio at a salad making (team building) workshop. Comments are welcome. I hope you will enjoy my masterpiece! Vincent

Ingredients

1 head crispy green lettuce
1 red cabbage finely sliced
10 cherry tomatoes halved
1/2 red sweet pepper (capsicum) thick slices and grilled
Some cooked cannellini beans
1 red onion, pickled and finely sliced
Croutons
Some shaved parmesan

Dressing Ingredients

2 Anchovy fillets, rinsed and patted dry
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt & pepper to taste
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup Vinegar

Preparation

For the Pickled red onion:
Blanch 1 sliced red onion in a small saucepan of boiling water to cover for 1 minute and drain in a colander. Then return them to the pan and add ½ cup of cider vinegar, a ½ teaspoon of salt, and just enough cold water to barely cover the onions. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer the onions 1 minute. Transfer the onions and brine to a glass jar and chill.

Place the lettuce onto a large serving plate, followed by the sliced red cabbage, red onion, grilled sweet pepper and cannellini beans. Top with shaved parmesan and of course some croutons and sprinkle with dressing.

For the dressing:
Puree the garlic, vinegar, and anchovies in a blender until smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
