Ingredients:
2 bananas
10 rasheres streaky bacon
smoked paprika (la chinata is good)
cocktail sticks
Here’s What You Do:
Soak the cocktail sticks in water, to stop them from burning when under the grill.
Remove any rind from the bacon and stretch each rasher with the back of a knife before cutting in half.
Cut the bananas into bite size chunks and roll in smoked paprika.
Wrap a piece of bacon around each banana chunk and skewer with a cocktail stick to secure.
Heat the grill to the highest setting.
Arrange the banana/bacon sticks seam side down on the grill pan and grill for 2 minutes each side, or until the bacon is crispy.
Variations:
In place of banana try using chunks of mango or pineapple.
Scallops work brilliantly. Replace the paprika with salt, pepper and lemon juice before wrapping in bacon.
