- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Cover a baking tray with nonstick baking paper and top with the salami. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until just crisp. Remove from the tray and leave to cool slightly on a plate before tearing into pieces.
- Meanwhile, for the dressing, put the olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a small, clean jar. Season well, adding the caster sugar to taste. Put the lid on the jar and shake to combine.
