Where to find ingredients
Bacon and cheddar cheese are widely available in most supermarkets in the US and UK. Look for bacon in the refrigerated meat section. Cheddar cheese can be found in the dairy aisle, often with pre-shredded or block options. For a wider variety, specialty cheese shops or international food aisles might offer different types of cheddar. If using block cheddar, grating it yourself is recommended for optimal melting.
Preparation method
- In a frying pan, fry the chopped bacon over medium heat until very crispy
- Remove the bacon from the pan, draining excess fat
- In the same pan (or in a bowl), mix the fried bacon with the cheddar cheese
- Stir well until the cheddar begins to melt and incorporates the bacon
- Use the warm mixture as a filling for pastéis
