For a special touch, look for olives in markets specializing in Middle Eastern products or in gourmet stores, which may offer different varieties.
Preparation method
- In a frying pan, fry the diced bacon over medium heat until very crispy
- Remove the bacon from the pan and place it on paper towels to drain excess fat
- In a medium bowl, combine the fried and drained bacon with the chopped ham, diced mozzarella, chopped hard-boiled eggs, chopped olives, and chopped tomato
- Stir all ingredients gently until a homogeneous mixture is obtained
- Refrigerate the filling for at least 30 minutes before using, allowing the flavors to meld and the filling to become firmer for the pastel
