Close your eyes. Imagine a lasagna. Think of those layers of perfectly cooked pasta, thinking of oozing mozzarella, deeply rich beef ragu. Now think of that, but in a brioche bun - the ease of convenience.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Lasagna
Ingredients
  • 5 hot dog buns
  • ½ cup garlic butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup pancetta
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1.8 lb beef mince
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely diced
  • 1 tin chopped tomatoes
  • 1 glass red wine
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 10 strips of fresh lasagna sheets
  • 15 strips of mozzarella
  • Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F.
  2. Fry the pancetta in the oil until golden, then add the onion and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute then add the mince and break up in the pan with a wooden spoon, moving it around as you go to brown it.
  3. Add the can of tomatoes, wine and tomato puree then season. Gently simmer until the liquid has reduced considerably - you want it to be almost dry.
  4. Meanwhile, take the hot dog buns and hollow them out with a sharp knife. Brush with garlic butter and bake for 10 - 15 minutes.
  5. Layer up the buns - a strip of pasta on the bottom followed by a few spoonfuls of ragu and a strip of mozzarella. Top with more ragu, more pasta and another strip of mozzarella, then sprinkle with the parmesan. Bake for around half an hour, covering with foil if the buns look like they'll burn.

Pizza Hasselback Chicken

Pizza Hasselback Chicken
Don't think we don't read the comments under our videos. It has come to our attention that a small minority of people have noticed our preoccupation with hasselbacking stuff - this one is for you guys. This originally Swedish technique has taken the internet by storm - everything from aubergines to olives have felt the punishing edge of a sharp chefs knife. This dish combines a few classics, pizza and chicken, to devastating (if hugely inauthentic) effect.
Author:
Cuisine: Italian
Recipe type: Pizza
Ingredients
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 pack small pepperoni, sliced in half
  • 1½ cups pizza sauce
  • Sliced mozzarella
  • Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F.
  2. Using a very sharp knife cut even parallel lines ⅘ the way down the length of each chicken breast, around ½ cm apart.
  3. Place the chicken in a bowl and sprinkle with oregano, pepper, salt and garlic powder.
  4. Arrange the chicken on an oiled skillet or baking tray and place a slice of pepperoni between each slit. Pour over the pizza sauce and top with mozzarella, then bake for around half an hour or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbling.
  5. Serve immediately with a salad and fresh crusty bread.

Monster Cheesesteak Burrito

Save Print
Monster Cheesesteak Burrito
Supposedly invented by a bored hot dog vendor in the 1930s, the winning combination of succulent sauteed beef, melted cheese and bread has earned the philly cheesesteak its place in the hall of fame. Our take on this American classic takes the poor burrito, that oft bastardised imitation of a rich and ancient cuisine, and stuffs it with all the good stuff, then pours cheese sauce all over it. Have pity, food gods.
Author:
Cuisine: Mexican
Recipe type: Burrito
Ingredients
  • 3 tbsp
  • 2.2lb steak, cut into very thin slices. It helps if you freeze it for around half an hour beforehand.
  • 1 white onion, sliced
  • 3 green peppers, sliced
  • 2 cups chestnut mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tbsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ cup flour
  • ¼ cup water
  • 5 large flour tortillas
  • 18 slices mozzarella
  • Cheese sauce
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F.
  2. Heat the oil in a large heavy bottomed frying pan and fry the steak quickly. Remove from the pan.
  3. Add the peppers and onions and fry until soft, then add the steak back in and season everything with the pepper, salt and garlic powder. Take off the heat.
  4. In a small bowl whisk the flour and water. Stick the tortillas together in a truncated triangle shape - three along the bottom, two along the top. Place some mozzarella on the bottom layer and top with a layer of the cheesesteak mix, then another layer of mozzarella, then more mix and more mozzarella. Carefully roll the whole thing up, cover with cheese sauce and bake until the sauce is bubbling and it's heated through, roughly 30 mins.
