Main Ingredients- 4 slices of processed cheese
- 8 strips of bacon
- 1 handful of mozzarella cheese (approx. 1/2 cup)
- 2 medium potatoes
- 1/2 bowl of leftover cooked rice
- A little roasted seaweed flakes
- 2 Tbsp chopped pickled cucumbers
- A pinch of black pepper (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, meticulously prepare all the ingredients that will create the salty, savory, and delicious flavors. The cheese, bacon, and potatoes are the stars of this dish, so ensure they are fresh.
Step 2
Peel the 2 potatoes and cut them into large, bite-sized chunks. Place the cut potatoes in a microwave-safe dish, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for about 6 minutes until tender. (Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave’s power.)
Step 3
Drain the pickled cucumbers and chop them finely. The tanginess of the pickles will cut through the richness of the bacon and add a wonderful flavor. Adjust the amount to your liking.
Step 4
While the microwaved potatoes are still hot, mash them until smooth using a fork or a potato masher. In the mashed potatoes, add the chopped pickled cucumbers and a pinch of black pepper (if using), and mix well to season.
Step 5
Set aside half of the seasoned mashed potatoes. To the remaining half, add the leftover rice and the prepared seaweed flakes, and mix well. Ensure the rice is coated with the mashed potatoes and seaweed flakes. This mixture will serve as the rice base.
Step 6
Cut each of the 4 slices of processed cheese in half, creating a total of 8 pieces. You’ll use one piece of cheese per strip of bacon.
Step 7
Lay one strip of bacon flat on a clean surface or cutting board. Place one piece of the cut processed cheese on top, covering about two-thirds of the bacon strip.
Step 8
Spread a thin layer of the mashed potato mixture (the seasoned one) over the cheese. Be careful not to make it too thick, as this can make rolling difficult.
Step 9
Sprinkle your desired amount of mozzarella cheese over the mashed potatoes. The gooey, melted mozzarella will further enhance the flavor of the bacon roll.
Step 10
Now, starting from the bacon, carefully and tightly roll up all the ingredients. Ensure the filling doesn’t spill out from the sides as you roll. Tuck in the ends of the bacon to secure it well.
Step 11
Create the rice-based rolls using the same method. Place a slice of processed cheese on the bacon, then spread the rice-and-seaweed mixture seasoned with mashed potatoes thinly over it.
Step 12
Generously add mozzarella cheese, then roll it up tightly with the bacon, just like the first ones. The combination of rice, cheese, and bacon is truly exciting!
Step 13
Once all the rolls are made, they will look neatly arranged with appealing cut surfaces. Now it’s time to cook them to a beautiful golden brown.
Step 14
Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Place the bacon rolls in the air fryer basket and cook for about 7 minutes. The bacon should start to brown nicely.
Step 15
After 7 minutes, flip the bacon rolls over and cook for another 3 minutes at 180°C (350°F). This ensures all sides of the bacon are crispy and perfectly cooked.
Step 16
Your delicious cheese bacon rolls are finally ready! You’ll be addicted to the savory taste and the rich cheese flavor. They taste even better dipped in ketchup or mustard. If you crave even more cheesiness, consider serving them with warm cheese fondue. Enjoy your rolls with your favorite dipping sauce!
