Ingredients

  • 4 slices tomato
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 40 grams old cheddar, coarsely grated
  • 40 grams provolone, coarsely grated
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons bomba sauce
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 kaiser rolls, sliced and buttered
  • 8 slices peameal bacon

Instructions

Follow each step in order. The directions below are written so a beginner can understand what to do, what to look for, and when to move on to the next step.

  1. Step 1.Slice the tomatoes and shred the iceberg lettuce so the cold toppings are ready before the bacon begins cooking.
  2. Step 2.Combine the mayonnaise with three to four tablespoons of bomba sauce and stir until the spread is smooth and evenly coloured.
  3. Step 3.Butter the cut sides of the kaiser rolls and toast them in a pan until golden, then keep them warm.
  4. Step 4.Pan-fry the peameal bacon for two to three minutes per side until cooked through and lightly browned at the edges.
  5. Step 5.Place the cheddar and provolone over four bacon slices so the cheeses begin to melt from the residual heat.
  6. Step 6.Spread the bomba mayonnaise on the toasted rolls, then arrange tomato and shredded iceberg lettuce on the bases.
  7. Step 7.Add four bacon slices to each roll, positioning the cheese-topped slices so the filling is evenly distributed.
  8. Step 8.Close the sandwiches and serve immediately while the rolls are crisp and the peameal bacon is hot.
