Serves 4. Preheat the grill and cook the bacon for 5 - 8 minutes until crisp, turning halfway through. Set aside to cool. Cut the Camembert into bite-sized wedges. Grate the bread into coarse crumbs. Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a frying pan and cook the crumbs, stirring, until crisp and golden; season and set aside. Tip the salad into a bowl. Break the bacon into bite-sized pieces and mix into the salad with the cheese. Mix together the vinegar, mustard, garlic and remaining olive oil. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Sprinkle with the crisp crumbs and serve. Note: Use Cos, chicory, Little Gem, Escarole, batavia and frisee.
