Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 125 g Smooth Cottage Cheese
  • 125 g Mascarpone Cheese 
  • 1 cup Matured Cheddar Cheese grated
  • 1 tsp Garlic  crushed
  • Smoked Paprika 
  • Bacon - rindless (halved to fit around the jalapeños pepper)
  • 9 Jalapeños or more

Method
 

  1. Make the filling by combining both kinds of cheese and garlic.
  2. Fill the Jalapeños peppers. Spoon the cheesy filling equally among all Jalapeños halves.
  3. Sprinkle each pepper with the shredded cheese.
  4. Wrap a piece of bacon around each cheese-filled Jalapeños. Stick a toothpick through the centre to ensure the bacon stays in place.
  5. Sprinkle the paprika on all the Jalapeños.
  6. Bake the peppers until the bacon is crisp in a conventional oven at 170° Celsius/338° Fahrenheit for 15 to 20 minutes and then grill on highest heat for a minute to ensure the bacon is crispy, or you can bake in the oven at the same temperature until they are ready and crisp under the grill.
