Green salad with herbs and garlic croutons

Method

• 1
  To make the dressing, whisk the vinegar, mustard and sugar in a small bowl until combined. Stir in the shallot. Gradually whisk in the oil until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper.

  Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over low heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-5 minutes or until golden. Use a slotted spoon to remove and discard the garlic.

  Increase heat to medium. Add half the bread to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to cool. Repeat with the remaining bread, reheating the pan between batches.
