Method
- To make the dressing, mix the sugar, oil and vinegar in a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and then toss together with the pear and rocket.
- To serve, simply arrange the dressed salad on a plate, top with the ham and crumble the blue cheese over. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cook's tips
Prepare the pear at the last minute and rub a little lemon juice over the cut pieces to stop discolouration. If taking this as a packed lunch, store the dressing in a separate container and add it to the salad right before you eat.
