5. Store in a very clean container in the fridge.
6. Cut the bread into cubes and shallow fry in a hot pan until golden.
7. Remove two leaves from each lettuce.
8. Using the slicing disc slice the remaining lettuce in the food processor.
9. Mix the sliced lettuce with the Caesar dressing.

Chef's tips: The process of adding the oil to the mixture should take no less than a minute. Don’t do this too far before serving as the leaves can oxidise.
