Grape Fruit Salad

For a grape fruit salad, select fresh young lettuce and use only the tender leaves, lay them in the salad bowl and add two grape fruit, cut in thin slices, quartered and free of seeds; around the edge arrange perfect halves of English walnuts, and at the moment of serving pour a French dressing over the whole. Rub a small bowl and a spoon well with a clove of garlic, put into the bowl six tablespoonfuls of olive oil, one teaspoonful of salt and half a teaspoonful of black pepper; rub and mix until the salt is thoroughly dissolved; then add by degrees two teaspoonfuls of vinegar. Stir continually for one minute and pour over the lettuce and fruit.
