Endive salad with classic mustard vinaigrette
One of chef Henry Harris's favourite salads - the secret is in the magic vinaigrette
Difficulty and servings
Serves 4
Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 15 mins
- Put a good grinding of salt and pepper in a bowl and add the mustard and red wine vinegar. Mix until the salt has dissolved. Add 1 tbsp hot water from the kettle, then pour in the oil in a steady stream, mixing constantly (use a hand blender for this) until it forms an emulsion. Break the endive (chicory) heads into spears, slice them if eating with a knife and fork, put in a large bowl, add the parsley and croutons and pour the dressing over. Mix, then pile onto 4 plates
Know-how
If you like a mild dressing, use just 2 tbsp red wine vinegar. If you want to eat the salad with your fingers, leave the endive spears (called chicory in the UK) whole.
