Caesar Salad

List of Ingredients

2 anchovy fillets
3 whole garlic cloves, peeled
3 Tablespoons mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly grated
2 Tablespoons virgin olive oil
2 hearts of romaine lettuce
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 Tablespoons freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese (2nd choice substitute: Parmigiano Reggiano)
Garlic Herb Croutons


Recipe

1. Process the anchovy fillets, garlic, mayonnaise, vinegar, salt and pepper in a little "one-cup" food processor or a blender to smooth consistency. Add the oil slowly, to form a dressing which will be slightly thickened and creamy.
2. Remove and discard the two outer layers from the head of romaine. Cut the two hearts of romaine crosswise into 2-inch pieces.
3. In a large bowl, toss the romaine leaves with the dressing until well coated.
4. Divide the leaves on four serving dishes and top with the diced tomatoes and grated cheese.

Serves: 4

Note: Serve with Garlic Herb Croutons (see my recipe)

Note2: I love my little food processor for little things.
