Preparation

Step by step through the recipe

  1. 1 Cut 200 g bacon into rough strips. Peel 3 onions and cut into half-moon slices.
  2. 2 Lightly fry 200 g bacon in the wok until crispy. Add the 3 onions and roast until translucent.
  3. 3 Add 3 EL brown sugar and let everything caramelize lightly (caution: sugar burns quickly).
  4. 4 Deglaze with 100 ml bourbon (caution: flames can flare up) and season with coarse pepper and salt to taste.
  5. 5 Let simmer down a bit until a jam-like consistency forms.
  6. 6 Serve — ideal as a side for meat and burgers.

Notes & tips

Only bacon, onions, sugar, bourbon, and spices (check the bacon label for added soy/milk; pure bacon is free). Works as a side dish for meat and burgers. When deglazing with bourbon, flames can flare up — keep your distance. Brown sugar burns quickly. Prepare in a wok or large pan.
