Argentina Special Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 head romaine lettuce or 1 head cos lettuce
    1/4 cup fresh carrot (grated)
    5 -6 large sun-dried tomatoes (the semi-dried meaty ones)
    1/3 cup walnut halves (raw or toasted if you prefer)
    1/2 cup mozzarella cheese (cut into small chunks)
    Dressing
    1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
    3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    3 tablespoons sesame seeds
    salt and pepper (to taste)
Preparation
    Wash the lettuce leaves individually and spin them in a salad spinner or drain for 30 minutes in a colander.
    Bunch them together and slice them in 1cm (1/2 inch) ribbons and place in a shallow salad bowl.
    Scatter the grated carrot on top followed by the cheese, walnuts and semi-dried tomatoes.
    Mix the dressing ingredients in a small jar and shake well.
    Pour over the salad and serve immediately.
    You can use your own dressing as this is just an approximation of the dressing used.
    You could also substitute other cheeses instead of the mozzarella.
