Bacon & Egg rolls with almond & chilli Pesto
Servings: 2
Ingredients
for the pesto
- 100 g blanched almonds
- 80 g basil leaves stems removed
- 1 clove garlic peeled
- 1/2 - 1 chilli roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino cheese
to serve
- streaky bacon cooked to your preference
- 2 eggs fried
- 2 bread rolls
- fresh watercress
Instructions
-
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.
-
To assemble the rolls, place some fresh watercress on the rolls followed by the cooked bacon, fried eggs and finally some of the pesto.
-
Serve immediately.
