Ingredients

  • 2 slices stale bread

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped

  • 2 heads baby cos lettuce, halved

  • 1 tsp finely chopped parsley

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • ½ tsp honey

Method

  1. 1. To make the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix to combine. If necessary, thin the dressing to a pouring consistency with a little cold water.

    2. Place the bread in a small food processor and pulse to coarse breadcrumbs. Heat a large frypan over medium heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Fry for just a minute, then add the breadcrumbs. Fry, stirring frequently, until the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
