Bacon & Egg Rolls with Almond & Chilli Pesto

Just imagine a soft, oozy egg on top of crisp, salty bacon in a soft roll flavoured with chilli, basil & almond pesto. Simple and perfect.

$(singleSetRecipe.title)

  • 31/2 oz blanched almonds
  • 27/8 oz basil leaf, stem removed
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • 1 chili, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup grated Pecorino cheese
  • streaky bacon, cooked to your preference
  • 2 egg, fried
  • 2 bread rolls
  • fresh watercress

Directions

  1. To make the pesto, combine all the ingredients except for the oil in a food processor and process until everything is finely chopped. With the blade running, slowly pour in the oil until you reach the desired consistency. I like a thicker pesto.
  2. To assemble the rolls, place some fresh watercress on the rolls followed by the cooked bacon, fried eggs and finally some of the pesto.
  3. Serve immediately.
