    Preparation

    STEP 1

    Place the pancetta on a tray and cook in a pre-heated oven at 150 degrees for 5 minutes, till golden brown. Next, make the dressing by combining the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, Grana Padano Riserva and saffron powder. Whisk until blended and bright yellow, for about 30 seconds.

Griddle the lettuce and chicory for 30 secs-1 min per side or until slightly charred. Assemble the salad by placing the baby gem lettuce and chicory on a plate. Add the crispy Pancetta on top and Grana Padano Riserva flakes and drizzle the dressing and oil over the top.
