15 minutes
Serves Serves: 4 children
Recipe Ingredients
-
14 cocktail-size white round bread rolls
- 410g can baked beans in chilli flavoured sauce
- 1 small Granny Smith apple, peeled and grated
- 15ml SPAR mango or pineapple chutney
- 15ml coconut
- 1 small carrot, peeled and grated
Recipe Method
- Using kitchen scissors, cut a square outline on the top crust of each bread roll.
- Gently scoop out the bread in one piece within that square, without breaking through the side crust walls. Set these aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Warm thoroughly in the microwave oven. Spoon into each bread roll cavity to almost full.
- Return the plug of bread onto each roll, with the top side facing down for a more authentic look resembling the original adult size.
Hints And Tips
Be sure to have paper serviettes close by for messy fingers!
Alternatively, to serve adult portions rather, divide un-sliced standard white bread loaves into thirds along the length. Double the filling quantity.
