Method
Step 1
MAKE THE CROUTONS Preheat the oven to 180ºc/160º fan/350ºf/gas 4. Slice your brioche loaf in half. Then dice into ½ inch cubes. Add the oil to a large baking sheet, and toss through the brioche cubes. Sprinkle with salt. Arrange in an even layer and bake for 9-10 minutes, until deep golden brown all over and crispy.
Step 2
TO MAKE YOUR DRESSING Compile the ingredients in a small bowl and stir well using a mini wire hand whisk
Step 3
TO CHOP THE WALNUTS either add them to your mini food chopper and pulse gradually until in small pieces (being careful not to overdo), or add them to a resealable bag and smash with a meat mallet or rolling pin until in small pieces.
Step 4
TO ASSEMBLE Combine all the fruit, walnuts and spinach in a large bowl and add about half the dressing. Toss through and taste, add more dressing to your liking or add it to the table so everyone can add more to their taste if they like. Plate up the salad and sprinkle with the grated cheddar cheese and the croutons.
