  • 150 g Cheese, mozzarella

  • 30 g Cheese, Parmesan, hard

  • 6 slice Meat, pork, smoked bacon

Steps

  1. Wash the lettuce and dry it well so that the dressing will adhere better to the leaves.

  2. In a small bowl, mix the oil and vinegar well. Dress the salad with the prepared dressing. Mix well and season with salt.

  3. Cut the semi-soft full-fat cheese into cubes or triangles. Use a potato peeler to shave or grate the Parmesan into thin slices. Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them as desired. Heat a pan and fry the pancetta without adding oil until crispy. Cook it until it turns golden brown and shrinks by 1/3. Remove the fried pancetta from the pan.

  4. First, serve the lettuce on a plate. Add the semi-soft cheese, pancetta, and eggs, and sprinkle Parmesan on top.
