Ingredients

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp red wine vinegar
  • 1½ tbsp walnut oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 100 g lamb’s lettuce or other green leaves
  • 6 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 50 g walnut halves 
  • 4 slices of baguette, about 1 cm thick
  • 1 garlic clove, halved
  • 4 slices of ripe, cylinder-shaped goat cheese, about 1 ½ cm thick
  • 1 tbsp finely sliced chives

Instructions

Preheat a grill to medium.

In a mixing bowl, whisk the mustard, vinegar, walnut oil and a little salt and pepper to taste. Add the green leaves, tomatoes and walnuts and very gently toss with the dressing. Divide among 2 plates.

Lightly toast the baguette slices and gently rub them with the garlic.

Top the slices of baguette with the goats cheese slices and place on a baking tray. Cook under the preheated grill until warmed, then place the toasts on top of the salad, sprinkle with the chives and serve immediately.

Note
• Take time to select a small goat cheese that is ripe and not too dry and choose the freshest of green leaves.
