Grilled lettuce with goats cheese (recipes)








Serves 6



Preparation time

less than 30 mins



Cooking time

less than 10 mins

















Ingredients



6 little gem lettuces2 tbsp olive oilsalt and freshly ground black pepper250g/9oz log-type goats cheese, or taleggio¼ lemon



Method



1. Cut the lettuces in half leaving the base of the stem intact to hold the leaves together. Brush the lettuces with the olive oil, well seasoned with salt and pepper. Then place cut side down on a preheated barbecue rack or one of those cast iron griddle pans with raised ridges. Cook for 3-5 minutes. They are ready when the outer leaves are well-charred and striped from the grill, and the thick stems are just becoming tender. 2. Arrange the 12 lettuce halves in a dish and lay over thin slices of the cheese. Add a few more twists of pepper and a drizzle of leftover olive oil. Throw in a hot oven or under a grill until the cheese starts to bubble.3. Serve at once. Two lettuce halves, smothered in bubbling cheese, per person.
