Method

Lay 1 rasher of smoked streaky bacon – and it must be smoked – on a board and run the side of your knife along it to flatten it out, meaning you can chop it in the middle and use half a rasher for each blanket.
Place your filling on top, then roll and wrap it up, lining them up in an oiled roasting tray as you go.
Cook in a preheated oven at 180°C/350°F/gas 4 for around 20 minutes, or until golden and cooked through, then serve.
