Ingredients
200g Sunreal Pitted Dates or Prunes
1/4 cup mango chutney (I use spicy mango chutney for an added twist)
8-10 slices streaky bacon
tooth picks to secure the bacon to the dates
Instructions
- Coat the dates with mango chutney and set aside. With the flat edge of a large knife run it along each slice of bacon to stretch then out thinner.
- Preheat your oven grill (broiler) on high.
- Lay out the strips of bacon and roll each date in bacon, 1 ½ times around the date, cut bacon with a knife and secure with a tooth pick. Place on a flat baking covered with baking paper. Continue wrapping dates until all have been covered with bacon.
- Grill in the oven turning the prunes twice for 5-8 minutes or until the bacon is cooked. Don’t let it burn! Let stand for 5 minutes, then serve.
