Description

Turn a classic caesar salad into a pasta salad, complete with crispy bacon and crunchy sourdough, that's worthy of praise.

Method

Step 1 of 3

Cook pasta according to packet instructions. Drain, refresh under cold water then set aside.

Step 2 of 3

Meanwhile, heat butter in a large frying pan over medium heat until melted. Add bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes or until crisp. Remove from pan and set aside. Add bread to pan and cook for 8 minutes or until golden and crisp. Set aside.

Step 3 of 3

Arrange cos leaves in bowls. Toss pasta and half each of the bacon and parmesan in a large bowl until combined. Divide among bowls, then top with egg and remaining bacon and parmesan. Season with pepper, scatter over chives and serve drizzled with dressing.
