I had to do some research to find out what I even made I had no idea if it even had a name.
Here is what I did.
I boiled some left over dried out bacon ends and pieces in a kettle.
After they were tender I let them cool and put them in a food processor to chop up a wee bit.
I then put the bacon in a skillet and cooked out more of the grease.
The reason for the boiling and food processor was to make all of the bits of bacon exactly the same.
While doing this a mixed up a batch of pasta dough in the mixer and cooked some potatoes and grated up some left over Monterrey jack cheese.
When the potatoes were cooked I drained the bacon and mixed up the potatoes bacon and cheese along with black pepper and garlic in the mixer.
Well after a long arduous process here is the results.
What did I do with the left over filling?
I used the left over egg wash I used as a sticking agent with the filling and added some four.
I then made potato cakes.
Pictures coming soon.
