INGREDIENTS

800g cauliflower, cut into ‘steaks’ 3cm
thick

7 tbsp olive oil

6 rounded tsp Outer Spice Original
Griller

30g butter, melted

40g fresh parmesan cheese, finely
grated

1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped

BACON AND CHEESE COBB LOAF

Prep time 20 min , Cooking time 45 min, Serves 8

METHOD

1.Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius. Fry bacon until golden, then transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
2. Slice off the top of the Cobb loaf, then carefully scoop out the bread's interior in one large piece if possible, leaving a 3-4cm thick crust. Cut the top crust and interior into chunks for dipping.
3. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
4. In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, 1 tsp of Groovin Garlic and 1 tbsp of parsley. Use a pastry brush to coat the bread chunks with the garlic butter
mixture, reserving 1 tbsp for later use.
5. Place the bread chunks on the tray and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through cooking. Continue baking until the bread is crunchy.
6. Now, prepare the filling. In a large microwave-safe bowl combine cream cheese, sour cream, Groovin Garlic and 1 tbsp of parsley. Then add in ¾ of the bacon, ¾ of the spring onions and both the mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Mix until all the ingredients are fully incorporated then put in the microwave for 90 seconds until the cheese has melted. Spoon it into the loaf.
7. Place the Cobb loaf onto a tray with a piece of foil large enough to fully wrap it. Brush the outside of the loaf with the remaining melted garlic butter. Reduce
the heat to 160 degrees Celsius. Wrap the loaf in the foil and put it in the oven on the middle shelffor 15 minutes.
8. Unwrap the foil and continue to cook for another 10-15 minutes until the loaf crust is crunchy and the dip is hot. Garnish with the rest of the bacon, spring onions and parsley. Serve hot, using the bread chunks to scoop up the dip before eating the loaf itself.
