Stuffed baguette

This baguette is "stuffed", rather than merely filled: hollowed out and refilled with a tasty mix of sautéed onions, fried bacon bits and eggs, before browning in the oven.

A useful way to use up a leftover baguette, even if it is already going dry. It makes a great dish that children love, and grown ups, too!

Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Rinse, peel and finely slice 2 spring onions (scallions), keeping the white and green parts separate.

Stage 2 - 5 min.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small frying pan on high heat. When good and hot, add 1 cup small pieces of smoked bacon.

Fry until cooked, then transfer onto a plate, leaving the fat in the pan.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Add the white part of the spring onion to the pan, salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute without colouring.

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Add the bacon pieces, the cooked (white) onion, the raw (green) onion and 1 cup grated cheese.

Salt lightly, pepper and mix well.

Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

Stage 6 - 4 min.

Cut 1 cup small pieces of smoked bacon in half and hollow out the middle with a serrated knife.

Sit the bread on a baking sheet.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Fill up with the filling mixture...

Stage 8 - 30 min.

...and bake for about 30 minutes.

Remarks

If you don't have spring onions, use a baby leek instead.

This basic idea for a stuffed baguette can be varied in lots of ways, changing and replacing this or that – the only limit is your imagination.

Keeping

Best eaten while hot, but can be reheated.
