Instructions
1
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then into 1cm chips (no need to peel).
- Pop onto a large (lined) baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins.
- Halfway through, toss the chips with the grated Italian style cheese then return to the oven for remaining time.
2
- Meanwhile, cut the baguettes lengthways down the middle (don't slice all the way through).
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the bacon until crispy and brown, 3-4 mins on each side.
- Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.
3
- Keep the bacon fat in the pan and return to medium-high heat.
- Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks.
- Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
4
- Add the garlic and Cajun spice mix to the pan. Cook for 30 secs.
- Stir in the passata, red wine jus, ½ tsp sugar and 100ml water (double both for 4p)
- Bring to the boil, stirring, then lower the heat slightly and simmer until thickened, 7-8 mins.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Meanwhile, crumble the crispy bacon.
5
- Move the chips to the bottom shelf of the oven.
- Pop the baguettes onto a separate lined baking tray.
- Spoon as much chilli into each as you like into each baguette, then top with the grated cheese.
- Cook on the top shelf of the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 2-3 mins.
6
- When everything is almost ready, toss the salad leaves with the balsamic glaze and a drizzle of oil.
- Plate up the Cajun chilli-filled baguettes and sprinkle over the bacon crumble.
- Serve the cheesy chips and salad alongside.
