Preparation method
- In a frying pan over medium heat, fry the diced bacon until it is crispy.
- Remove the bacon from the pan and drain on kitchen paper to absorb excess fat.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crispy bacon with the diced ham, mozzarella, chopped hard-boiled eggs, olives, and tomato.
- Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined.
- Chill the filling in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before use to allow the flavours to meld and the mixture to firm up for easier filling.
