This OTT toastie holds nothing back. Crispy bacon, three kinds of cheese and spicy pickled jalapeños. Perfect paired with a cold beer!
Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
250 grams streaky bacon
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
50 grams finely grated parmesan
200 grams cream cheese, softened
8 slices good-quality bread
¼ cup pickled jalapeños, drained and chopped
20 grams cheddar cheese, grated
50 grams butter
METHOD
Place bacon on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Grill on each side until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel.
In a bowl, combine garlic, parmesan and cream cheese.
Smear one side of each bread slice with the cheese mixture. Top 4 slices with bacon, sliced jalapeños and grated cheddar. Place the remaining slices of bread, cream cheese side down, on top.
Melt 25 grams butter in a large skillet pan. Fry the toasties until golden brown on one side, then add remaining 25 grams butter and carefully flip the toasties. Use the back of a spatula to press the toasties down. Toasties may need to be cooked in batches.
