1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Tear the ciabatta into roughly 2cm chunks.

b) Pop the ciabatta onto a baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat well.

c) Once the oven is hot, bake the croutons on the middle shelf until golden, 8-10 mins, then remove from the oven and set aside.

Get Prepped

a) Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix together the onion marmalade, balsamic vinegar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount). Set aside your dressing for later.

Finish and Serve
