Ingredients
Baked Goat Cheese on Herbed Toast with Salad
- Ingredients
- 250 grams mixed Lettuce (cleaned, spun dry and plucked into bite size pieces)
- For the marinade
- 1 Tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 3 Tbsps olive oil
- 1 tsp Mustard
- 1 pinch sugar
- salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 4 slices Goat cheese (from logs of 50 grams)
- 2 Tbsps mixed, chopped herbes de Provence
- 2 garlic cloves (pressed through a garlic press)
- 3 Tbsps olive oil
- salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 4 white bread (crust removed)
For the marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard and sugar and season with salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in 3 tablespoons of the oil until emulsified.
In another bowl, whisk together the oil, herbs and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (approximately 425°F). Brush the slices of white bread with some of the herbed oil. Place on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown on both sides. Remove from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 160° (approximately 325°F).
Top each of the toasts with a slice of goat cheese and brush the remaining herbed oil mixture over the cheese, place in the oven and bake for a few minutes until the cheese has lightly browned.
In a bowl, toss the salad with the marinade and serve with the baked goat cheese.
