CARAMELISED Onions
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener. Remove from the pan, season, and cover.
A IS FOR Almonds
Place the Almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
YOU CAN’T BEAT BACON
Return a pan to medium-high heat. When hot, add the bacon strips and fry until browned and crispy, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel, and roughly chop.

Cut the top of the baguette lengthways - don’t cut all the way through! Stuff with the chopped bacon, the caramelised Onion, and the cheese. Place the baguette directly onto a hot oven rack and an oven proof dish with water onto the oven floor. Bake until the cheese has melted and crispy, 8-10 minutes.

In a bowl, combine the Cucumber half-moons, the rinsed leaves, the toasted nuts, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
