Method

• Firstly make the dressing; mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and set aside Pick over the rocket/watercress by picking off the tips of the rocket/watercress, I like to leave them as a little bunch
• With the remaining larger leaves remove these from the stalks
• Place into a bowl Add the hazelnuts and set aside
• Heat up a fry pan and cook the bacon over a moderate-to-high heat until the bacon starts to go crisp
• Add the apple and coat in the bacon fat
• Cook for a further 2 minutes or until the apple just starts to soften
• Add the hot bacon and apple to the rocket/watercress mixture
• Pour the dressing into the pan and swirl around, don’t forget to get the bits of the bottom of the pan
• Check for seasoning and pour over the salad
• Toss gently together
• Serve immediately
