Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Cut your ciabatta into 1 cm thick slices.
- On a lined baking tray, toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.
- Bake in the oven until crispy and golden brown, 8-10 mins.
2
- Meanwhile, bash or roughly chop the hazelnuts.
- Place a pan over medium heat (no oil).
- Once hot, dry-fry the hazelnuts until toasted, stirring regularly, 2-3 mins. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Quarter the pear lengthways (no need to peel), remove the core and thinly slice lengthways/widthways.
- Trim the salad leaves, then tear or chop into bite-sized pieces.
3
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once the oil is hot, fry the bacon lardons until golden, 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook lardons thoroughly.
- Once the bacon is browned, add the pear to the pan and fry until the pear has softened, 2-3 mins.
- Transfer the pear, bacon and the liquid from the pan to a small bowl. Allow to cool for a few mins.
4
- Divide the salad leaves between bowls.
- Spoon the pear, bacon and juices on top.
- Finish with a sprinkling of hazelnuts and a crumbling of blue cheese.
- Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Serve the ciabatta slices alongside.
