1 tablespoon anchovy paste
1 egg yolk
1 cup olive oil
1 cup parmesan cheese
Ground pepper
Pinch of salt
Make the dressing.
Using a mortar and pestle, grind the the garlic clove with a pinch of salt until a fine paste forms. Add the egg yolk, anchovy paste, and whisk until combined.
Add the lemon juice and ¼ cup of olive oil, whisking again until combined. Slowly add in the parmesan and olive oil, whisking to emulsify as you go. You can also use an immersion blender. Finish with ground pepper.
Assemble the salad.
Pre-heat a grill on high. Wash and dry the little gem lettuce, halving pieces lengthwise. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Place gem halves on grill, cut side down, for about 3 minutes until you reach desired char.
