The ultimate BLT sandwich

tomatoes

salt

tsp pepper

olive oil

extra large free range egg yolks

lemon

garlic (sliced)

Dijon mustard

tsp smoked paprika

caster sugar

250 ml (1cup) canola oil

250 g (½lb) streaky bacon (cooked

sourdough bread (lightly toasted in the oven)

ice berg lettuce

Pre-heat the oven to 170°c/340°f and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Place the sliced tomatoes on the sheet pan and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over the olive oil and place in the oven.

Allow the tomatoes to cook for 45 minutes to an hour until they start to caramelize.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature.

To make the aioli, place the egg yolks, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, paprika, smoked chilli, sugar and salt in a blender and blend for 30 seconds until well combined.

Whilst blending, slowly pour the oil in a thin stream until half of the oil has been incorporated. The remaining oil can be poured in a little quicker as the mixture has already been emulsified at this stage. If your aioli seems very thick you can add a few tablespoons of water to thin it out, just make sure that you blend it well. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Transfer the aioli into a bowl and set aside.

To assemble the sandwich, spread aioli onto the slices of bread.

Layer the lettuce, roasted tomatoes and crispy bacon on top then sandwich with another slice of bread.

Serve immediately.

These are really the ultimate BLT. Thick cut bacon, fresh crisp lettuce, and juicy marinated tomatoes are put between two slices of lightly toasted bread with a thin coating of mayo.
