Minute Egg Dressing - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 slices bread
1 egg
1/2 c. olive or salad oil
1/4 tsp. red pepper or to taste
1/4 tsp. salt or to taste
1/2 Tbsp. butter or margarine
1 clove garlic
3/4 c. grated Italian cheese (Parmesan)
1 Tbsp. vinegar (approximately)

Preparation

Cut bread into tiny cubes.
Place butter in iron frying pan over lowest heat.
Add bread; cook until crisp, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Put egg into bowl; mince garlic and add.
Beat well with rotary beater.
Add oil, a little at a time; continue beating until mixture begins to thicken.
(In order to get the mixture to thicken, it may be necessary to use a little less or a little more than 1/2 cup oil.)
Add cheese, red pepper and salt; beat well.
Add vinegar; beat well.
Just before serving, add bread cubes.
Pour over lettuce; toss well.
