Caesar Dressing (Thermomix)

 Ingredients

2 cloves garlic
1 whole egg
2 anchovy fillets
1 1/2 T Worcester sauce
1 1/2 T lemon juice
1 cup flavourless oil such as avocado
4 T olive oil

First chop the garlic by dropping it onto the blades through the hole in the lid while running at speed 10 for a few seconds. Scrape the chopped garlic down the sides of the bowl.
Then add the next four ingredients into the Thermomix and mix at 37 deg. spoon speed for 4 minutes.
Then turn off the heat and increase the speed to 7 and, with the measuring cup in place, pour the oils slowly onto the lid so they can dribble into the bowl.

This makes quite a lot - you will not need all of it.  It is not seasoned so you will need to season the salad. If you used salted anchovies, take care with the salt. I used anchovies in vinegar.

Use it to dress cos or iceberg lettuce mixed with whatever you fancy - avocado, cucumber, red pepper.  Then add freshly made croutons (tossed in EVO and baked for 10-15 minutes at 180 deg) and a few quartered hard boiled eggs.  I served it with some white and brown crab meat, but chicken would also be lovely.
