Instructions
Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Fit the wonton wrappers into each hole of a standard size muffin / cupcake tin (not mini and not Texas muffin tins!). Spray the wontons lightly with olive oil. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until golden and crispy. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
Heat a small non stick pan over high heat. Spray with oil, add bacon and sauté until crispy, then remove and drain on absorbent paper towel.
Return pan to stove, reduce heat to medium high and spray pan with oil. Add finely diced bread. Shake pan (or stir) to brown evenly. Remove mini croutons from pan, scatter over a pinch of salt and set aside.
Place Dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor and whizz until smooth. If it seems too thick, use a tiny splash of milk to adjust the consistency.

Recipe 1. This makes 1 1/4 cups of dressing. I found it difficult to make a smaller quantity in my food processor. Keep leftover dressing in the fridge - it will keep for a week. However, my mum made a sensible suggestion - if you use a mortar and pestle to grind the anchovy and garlic to a paste (and assuming you are using finely grated parmesan) then you don't need a blender which means you can make a smaller quantity of dressing (half the dressing is plenty for 12 wonton cups).

I made this last night for a ladies night. They were a hit. I liked that I could make the wrappers, croutons and dressing (I skipped the anchovies) the night before. Will be making these again. Thank you Nagi!
Nagi, what a great idea! I made these for my Mother in law’s 85th birthday party. They were a HUGE hit. I couldn’t find wonton wrappers, so I used phyllo dough cups that you can get frozen. Smaller than wonton wrappers, so I made about 4 dozen appetizers with the salad recipe. Also had to make sure salad ingredients were cut on the smaller side! Everyone raved about them. They were the first item refilled on the buffet, the first item I ran out of, and the first item people were asking for more of! I was a little apprehensive about the anchovies in the salad dressing, but once you have it made, you don’t get a “fishy” taste. It blends in and seasons the dressing. This is now my go to Cesar salad dressing! Long post, but wanted to say THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
It was awesome. I made it for my son’s birthday and everyone just loved it.
I love all your recipes with all details and options you normally explain in your notes.
Thank you.
These are always a hit whenever I make them!
These were gone in a flash ! I made double and served them, made the mistake of saying there was more and they all wanted MORE. Will definitely make again, thank you. ( I used some leftover pork - the sauce was amazing)
I made this and it was delicious and looked gorgeous. The sauce tastes beautiful and goes perfectly with the ingredients.
I made these as a trial for my daughters 21st party, serving them at my father in laws 80th birthday. They were the first to go, even my extremely fussy nieces loved, loved, loved them. They were super crunchy and the dressing is amazing, I'm never buying shop caesar dressing again!!
