Instructions
1. Cut the onion into half moons and brown it in a bit of olive oil. Make it nice and crispy. Once it's done, put it aside in a bowl and squirt a bit of lemon juice on it.
2. As the onion is cooking, wash the lettuce thoroughly. Soak it several times. Nothing is worse than gritty lettuce in a salad. Break the lettuce into bite-size pieces and drop them in your spinner under running water. Once it's washed, spin it until it's dry. Wet lettuce will dilute the dressing.
3. Once the lettuce is dry, put it in a bowl. Add the onions, walnuts, orange and cheese.
4. To make the dressing, just mix the ingredients in a jar and give them a good shake.
5. Toss everything together in a big bowl and serve.
