To make the croutons:
- Slice the sourdough into the desired shape for your croutons.
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the sourdough pieces to the pan.
- Toss the sourdough in the oil to coat and arrange them in a single layer.
- Sear the sourdough by turning it every minute until all sides are golden brown (approximately 5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and season with salt.
- Serve immediately.
To make the 7-minute eggs:
- Carefully add the eggs to a small pot of boiling water. (Ensure you add a little bit of salt, as this assists in removing the shell.) and set a timer for 7 minutes.
- After seven minutes, remove the eggs and plunge them into a large bowl of iced water. This stops the cooking process.
- Carefully peel the eggs and cut them in half.
To make the crispy prosciutto:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and carefully lay the prosciutto on the tray, making sure to leave space between the pieces to ensure they don't touch.
- Place another piece of parchment paper and another tray on top of the prosciutto. This ensures the prosciutto cooks evenly and stays in shape.
- Once the oven is preheated, bake the prosciutto pieces for 10-15 minutes. Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of the prosciutto slices.
- Place the prosciutto on a cooling rack and allow it to cool.
- The prosciutto will crisp as it comes to room temperature. Allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
ASSEMBLY:
- Combine baby cos lettuce leaves, white anchovies, shaved parmesan, soft boiled egg and crispy prosciutto.
