Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Place the bacon in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat until crisp.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Starting with a cold pan helps render the fat slowly for perfectly crispy bacon.
- 2
Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble it into small pieces and set aside.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 3
In a large, clear glass bowl or trifle dish, arrange the shredded lettuce in an even layer.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Using a glass bowl shows off the colorful layers of the salad.
- 4
Layer the diced onion, celery, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper on top of the lettuce.
Aproximativ 3 min.
- 5
Add the drained sweet peas as the final vegetable layer, spreading them evenly.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and granulated sugar until smooth.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 7
Carefully spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top layer of peas, extending it to the edges of the bowl to create a seal.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: This 'seals' the salad, keeping the vegetables underneath crisp until serving.
- 8
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the mayonnaise layer.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 9
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
Aproximativ 8 ore
