Sick of sandwiches? want something different for lunch? this light and satisfying recipe is just the thing to fix those blues. I found this in the Australian brand name recipe cook book. I had invited some friends for lunch and wanted to give them something different. This recipe was a huge hit they left with a smile and the recipe as well. Ingredients:
175 g bacon |
1 large onion, finely diced |
250 g broccoli, cooked in small florets |
90 g butter or 90 g margarine |
1/3 cup flour |
pepper |
2 cups milk |
4 large eggs, seperated |
2 cups shredded swiss cheese |
1/4 cup cracker crumb, crushed (savoury) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
2. Remove rind from bacon and chop finely.
3. Place in well greased pan with the onion and fry until cooked, then drain and set aside.
4. Make a white sauce with the butter, flour, seasonings and milk; add half the cheese and set aside, covered for 5 minutes.
5. Beat egg whites until stiff, carefully fold into the sauce, mixing until no streaks remain - do not over beat.
6. Spoon into a lined, greased and flour-dusted large swiss roll pan and bake for 40 45 minutes.
7. In the meantime, scatter the buscuit crumbs over a large sheet of greaseproof paper. Gently mix the bacon, onion, broccoli and remaining cheese together.
8. Carefully turn the cooked roll onto the paper, scatter the bacon mixture evenly over the surface and roll up.
9. Serve hot, warm or cool in slices with a salad if desired.
