Step 1
Preheat oven to 150°C/Gas 2. Soften the onion and garlic in the butter, herbs, brandy and flour. -
Step 2
Line a dish with foil (if you don't have a suitable dish, this lot will fit into a large Chinese takeaway foil). Line the foiled dish with slices of bacon, flattened and thinned with the back of a knife. -
Step 3
Mix together the onion, garlic and meat and fill the container, folding over the tops of the bacon slices to form a lid. Cover with kitchen foil and place in a roasting tray half filled with water. -
Step 4
Cook for about 2 hours, then press lightly - a 1kg bag of sugar wrapped in a plastic bag works well - for a couple of hours until cool.
