Step 1
Cook lardons in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crispy and fat renders, about 6 minutes.
Step 2
Transfer lardons to a paper towel; leave fat in the pan. Add shallot to the fat and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3
Whisk mustard and vinegar together, then pour into the hot pan off heat. Stir once to combine with the pork fat.
Step 4
Pour warm dressing over frisée in a large bowl. Toss to wilt slightly. Divide between two plates and top with croutons and lardons.
Step 5
Bring a small pot of salted water to a simmer. Crack each egg into the water and poach until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3–4 minutes.
Step 6
Slide one warm poached egg onto each salad. Season with salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
