Preparation

‘The famous BLT salad, adapted from the BLT sandwich, is immensely popular worldwide. Besides the stunning colourful contrasts, this variation also combines different temperatures and structures, making it even more delicious and enjoyable. The addition of the Beer Battered Onion Rings transforms this salad into a truly complete meal’.

  1. Wash the lettuce leaves in ice-cold water and dry off in the salad spinner.

  5. Warm the slices of fried bacon in the oven.
