Ingredients
Instructions
Directions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice the top off the garlic bulb, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30 minutes until soft and golden.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and fry the bacon until crispy (about 3–4 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels, then brush with maple syrup and sprinkle with chili powder.
Mash the roasted garlic into a paste, then whisk with mayonnaise, mustard, and a pinch of salt. Stir in 1 tsp of the bacon drippings for extra depth.
Slice the tomato thickly, drizzle with olive oil, red wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
Heat a splash of flavourless oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the bread until golden and crisp on both sides (about 2 minutes per side).
Spread the garlic mayo on each toast slice. Layer with bacon, tomato slices, lettuce leaves, and torn basil. Finish with freshly cracked black pepper.
Serve immediately while the bread is warm and the bacon is crisp.
