Jamie Olivers Avocado Pancetta Pine Nut Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a frying pan and fry the pancetta until crispy.
• Remove from the pan and set aside.
• In the same pan, lightly toast the pine nuts. (This happens quickly, don't abandon them.).
• Make your dressing by combining 1 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Taste to make sure your dressing is balanced; add a little more oil or vinegar if needed.
• On serving plates, lay out the avocado.
• Sprinkle over the spinach leaves, pancetta and pine nuts.
• Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

• Peel, halve, and quarter the onions then quarter again, to give you 8 pieces from each onion. Heat a frying pan and fry off the rashers of pancetta until crisp. Add a couple of lugs of olive oil to the pan, and add the sprigs of thyme, the onions, and pine nuts with a pinch of salt. Toss around and fry on a medium heat for about 5 minutes until caramelized and sweet (not black!).
• Then, throw everything into a salad bowl with the rocket or any nice salad leaves. Drizzle generously with balsamic vinegar, this will make a natural dressing as it mixes with the olive oil. Serve with some shaved Parmesan over the top, you can use a potato peeler to do this. Munch away.

Steps:

• combine lettuce, macadamia nuts and avocado.
• Drizzle with dressing.
