Ingredients

1 lettuce (1 head; the spoken recipe names iceberg lettuce, while the reviewer uses romaine and says other types should work)
1 lemon juice (juice of 1 lemon; the spoken recipe says to hold the juice, then add it)
olive oil (about two circles poured in; amount not specified)
0.5 tsp salt (The speaker describes an amount about the size of a flat quarter, approximately half a teaspoon)
1 clove garlic (minced or crushed; the reviewer substitutes prepared garlic, but the original speaker specifies one clove)
black pepper (to taste; named by the reviewer)
white vinegar (a splash)

Steps

1
Wash and prepare the lettuce, then tear or cut it into bite-size pieces and place it in a salad bowl. The spoken source names iceberg lettuce; the reviewer uses romaine and notes that other lettuce can be used.
2
Squeeze the juice from one lemon, holding the juice ready to add to the salad.
3
Pour olive oil over the lettuce, using about two circles as described in the source; no measured amount is given.
4
Add the lemon juice and about ½ teaspoon salt.
5
Add one clove of garlic and black pepper to taste.
6
Add a splash of white vinegar.
7
Toss the lettuce with the dressing until evenly coated, then taste and adjust to your liking before serving.

Notes

The transcript does not give a lettuce quantity or a measured amount of oil or vinegar. It mentions olive oil and garlic in the original recipe; the reviewer says they instead used avocado oil and prepared garlic. The source does not specify detailed dressing proportions.
