Crunchy green beans and savory bacon combine in a tasty salad.
Ingredients:
  • 250g bacon rashers, rind removed
  • 500g green beans, topped
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) extra virgin olive oil
  • 21.00 gm fresh lemon juice
  • 100g baby rocket leaves
  • 1 witlof, halved lengthways, each half thinly sliced lengthways
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with foil and lay the bacon strips on top. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes until the bacon is crispy. Once done, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
  • While waiting, heat a large saucepan with salted water over high heat until it boils. Add the beans and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and immediately cool down under cold running water.
  • Mix the oil and lemon juice in a bowl.
  • Combine the rocket, witlof, and beans in a bowl. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle over the salad. Drizzle with dressing and gently mix everything together.
