whole cloves of garlic. Bake until golden brown and crisps. Remove

the dressing with.
Prep the avocado, cut in half. Carefully remove the stone and score
the avocado into cubes.
To make the dressing - reheat the pan with the bacon fat, add the
diced shallot, cook gently until fully softened. Deglaze with
balsamic vinegar, whisk in the rapeseed oil to emulsify. Add
cracked black pepper and Demerara sugar.
Arrange salad between two bowls, scatter over diced avocado, the
still warm cooked bacon, the croutons. Spoon over the pan dressing
and season the salad.
