Preparation
- In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towel and crumble. Set aside.
Dressing
- In a bowl, with a hand mixer or a whip, combine Crème OKA, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, oil and garlic.
- Add capers, fresh parsley, salt and pepper. Rectify seasoning if needed. NOTE: Since there are no fresh eggs in this dressing, it will keep longer in the fridge.
Preparation
- In a salad bowl, mix lettuce with dressing. Reserve a few leaves for plate decoration.
- Sprinkle salad with croutons, bacon and OKA cheese crisps to give it even more flavour and texture.
OKA crisps
- Place rack in the middle of a 180°C (350°F) preheated oven. Line a cooking sheet with parchment paper.
- Thinly slice or grate OKA cheese and place on cooking sheet in 5 cm x 5 cm shapes.
- Cook for about 10 minutes or until cheese has melted and turned golden. Remove from the sheet and let stand (they will turn crispy).
