Halved baby cos gets a quick blast on the grill bars so the edges char while the heart stays crunchy. Spoon over a lemony yoghurt dressing.

- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 100 gram greek yoghurt
- 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 piece lemon
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 bunch chives
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- 1Cut each baby cos in half lengthways, keeping the root end intact so the leaves hold together.
- 2Whisk the yoghurt, mayonnaise, crushed garlic, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the salt into a pourable dressing.
- 3Brush the cut faces of the lettuce with the olive oil.
- 4Heat the barbecue grill bars to high for 5 minutes.
