Spring Lyonnaise Salad

·
4 servings
  1. Prepare the salad leaves

    Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. A salad spinner works brilliantly for this. Tear the dried leaves into smaller pieces and arrange them in a bowl or on a plate.

  2. Make the dressing

    Whisk the vinegar with the salt until the salt dissolves. Then add the mustard, oil and chopped garlic. Whisk thoroughly until you get a smooth, fragrant dressing.

  3. Fry the bacon and croutons

    Cut the bacon into small pieces and the toast bread or baguette into small cubes. Put everything into a non-stick pan – no need for oil or any other fat. Dry-fry until crisp.

  4. Poach the eggs

    Poach the eggs

    Bring a large pot of water to the boil with a splash of vinegar added. Once it's at a gentle simmer (not a hard boil, or the egg will fall apart), swirl the water into a whirlpool and crack an egg into the centre. Simmer gently for about 2 minutes, so the yolk stays runny.

  5. Serve

    Scatter the croutons and bacon over the prepared salad leaves, then top with the egg, lifted out of the water with a slotted spoon. Drizzle the whole salad with the garlic dressing and serve immediately.

  6. You're done!
