Preparation steps

Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F

Rinse, trim and cut the lettuce in half lengthwise. Peel and dice the carrots, onion and celery. Cut the bacon into small cubes and sauté with the vegetables in a pot in 1 tablespoon hot oil until golden brown. Stir in the tomato paste and deglaze with the stock and white wine. Season the lettuce with salt and pepper and saute, cut sides down, in the remaining hot butter in an ovenproof dish 2-3 minutes. Turn and pour the stock over the top. Season with some salt and pepper and bake for about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
