Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F. Break the ciabatta in small chunks. Divide them over a large ovenproof dish.
Crush the clove of garlic and mix half of it with the 2 tbsp of olive oil. Drizzle the garlic oil over the ciabatta and roast in the oven for 10-15 until crunchy and goldenbrown. Let it cool.
Meanwhile tear the lettuce in pieces. Finely chop the anchovies. Grate as much of the cheese until you have the amount of a large tablespoon.
Make a dressing by combining the rest of the garlic, anchovies, grated cheese, extra virgin olive oil and mayonnaise. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce.
Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce and toss the lettuce with the croutons. Slice the rest of the cheese and divide over the salad.
