This is one I have been dying to share with you! It is a MASSIVE favourite of Shan and myself and it's surprisingly cheap for what it is (thanks to Cleo's Deli on Ormond Rd in Elwood) and tastes like heaven! I will call it the Cleo's Best Batard EVER!
Ta Da! Here it is, The Cleo's Best Batard EVER!! Now before I tell you what's in it, let me just explain a little bit more about Cleo's Deli, because we just LOVE it! Cleo's is a deli on Ormond Rd in Elwood that has an amazing special offer of 4 items for $10 or 6 for $15 from the RED section of their fridge or shelves at the front door. The fridge is full of a selection of meats, cheeses, antipasto, dips, sauces, spreads, desserts and more. The front shelf is packed full of nuts, crackers, sweet biscuts, tuna and more. There is honestly nothing better than having an AWESOME deli down the road from home!
Ok, back to the Batard now, the actual roll is a Red Onion and Parmesan Batard, it is incredible! So light on the inside with a nice crunchy crust! Then I fill it with basil pesto, red pesto, onion jam, semi sun-dried tomatos, mixed olives, feta cheese and marinated artichoke. All ingredients can be brought from Cleo's but some are not in stock constantly, if this is the case we can get whatever we need from the supermarket next door. The picture shown is a third of a batard, as they are about a foot long you can either cut them up to share as a snack, or just cut it in half and you have a delicious lunch! If you don't have a deli near you a supermarket should stock all the ingredients needed to make something similar. Leave a comment if you have some more good ideas on what to put in my next one ;)
