caesar salad vinaigrette

Just a simple, great vinaigrette for everyday salads.
Especially good for caesar salad.
Recipe found on delicious days.

1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2-3 anchovy fillets (in oil)
1/8 tsp flaky sea salt (e.g. Maldon)
1 tsp mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
6-8 tbsp olive oil, plus a little more for frying
4 tbsp water

Using your mortar make a paste from the finely chopped garlic clove, anchovies and coarse sea salt. Add this paste to a large mixing bowl, with the mustard, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. Briefly beat with a whisk, then add olive oil by the tablespoon and whisk well in-between. Lastly add water by the tablespoon (whisk well) and season to taste. Keep in the fridge until ready too use.

What I do sometimes is simply add the first 6 ingredients to a bowl, beat with a mixer, than add the oil, beat, than add the water, mix and it's ready.
Great with caesar, or with some leafy side salad (with grated parmesan as a twist).
