Prunes in Crispy Bacon image

This delicious combination provides a mouthful of contrasts-crispy savoury bacon and soft, melting sweet prunes-great served hot or cold. Substitute the prunes with dried apricots for an equally tasty alternative.

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 3

vegetable oil, for greasing
4 streaky bacon rashers (strips)
8 soft dried pitted prunes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/gas mark 6). Brush a baking tray with the oil.
  • Cut each bacon rasher in half lengthways. Lay a strip of bacon on a chopping board, place a dried prune at the top edge and roll, wrapping it tightly around the prune. Pierce a cocktail stick through the centre of the wrapped prune to secure. Repeat with the remaining bacon and prunes.
  • Place the prunes on a the prepared baking tray and bake them for 10-15 minutes, turning over half way through cooking, until the bacon is slightly crispy on both sides.
