Comments

I remember my mum whipping up similar ‘bread’ savouries for an impromptu but very appreciated lunch. With regards to fillings you can pretty much put whatever you like in these little delights. Today I am using two favourites – asparagus and bacon!

Thanks to ADROSS FARM – asparagus, WAITAKI BACON AND HAM – bacon, and BEANOS BAKERY – fresh baked goods -  for providing the produce used in the demonstration.
