• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 250 grams Button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
• 100 grams Smoked bacon
• 2 tablespoons Flat-leaf parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your barbecue or grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Slice the French baguette diagonally into 1 cm thick slices to create crostini bases.

Step 3

Brush both sides of the bread slices with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Set them aside.

Step 4

Finely mince the garlic cloves. Dice the smoked bacon and set both aside separately.

Step 5

Clean and finely chop the button mushrooms.

Step 6

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt the butter along with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 7

Add the minced garlic and diced bacon to the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bacon is crispy and the garlic is fragrant.

Step 8

Stir in the chopped mushrooms and cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and any liquid is cooked off.

Step 9

Add the Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste to the mushroom mixture, stirring until well combined and heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 10

Grill the prepared baguette slices on the barbecue for 1-2 minutes per side, or until crisp and lightly charred.

Step 11

Spoon the mushroom Kilpatrick mixture generously onto each grilled crostini.

Step 12

Garnish with finely chopped parsley, serve immediately, and enjoy!
