preparation

Cook the potatoes separately for the dressing. Heat the grill with a plancha or a cast iron pan to about 200 °C.
Clean the mushrooms, quarter them and braise them on the plancha with a little sunflower oil. Season with salt and pepper. Peel the garlic clove and briefly place it on the plancha. Fry the bacon slices until crispy. Peel the onion and also place it on the plancha in slices. Braise the cherry tomatoes slightly.

For the dressing, put the potatoes, mustard, apple cider vinegar, vegetable stock, hazelnut oil and honey in a tall blender and mix finely with a hand blender. Add the garlic clove from the plancha. Season well with salt and pepper, top up with sunflower oil and mix again.
Finally, halve the small heads of romaine lettuce and place the cut side down on the plancha. Once the salad is lightly browned, it can be served.
