Ingredients: 8 slices thick-cut bacon, cubed; 2 cups/500ml watercress; 1/2 cup/125ml crumbled blue cheese; 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and sliced; 2 avocados, pitted, peeled and cubed; 2 tomatoes, cubed; 1 head iceberg lettuce, cut into wedges; Salt and freshly ground black pepper; 2 hard-boiled egg yolks; 1 tablespoon/15ml Dijon mustard; 1 tablespoon/15ml pure maple syrup; 1 tablespoon/15ml red wine vinegar; 1 tablespoon/15ml Worcestershire sauce; 1/2 cup/125ml olive oil; 2 tablespoons/30ml finely chopped fresh chives; Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

For the salad: Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Arrange the watercress, blue cheese, eggs, avocados, tomatoes, lettuce and bacon in rows on a platter. Season with salt and pepper.
For the dressing: In a small bowl, using a fork, mix the egg yolks into the mustard to make a paste. Whisk in the maple syrup, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the oil to form a thick dressing. Add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) water to loosen it up if necessary. Whisk in the chives. Season with salt and pepper.
To serve, drizzle the dressing over the salad.
