Ingredients

• 500 g Cream cheese
• 190 g Smoked bacon
• 1 Large red bell pepper (Diced)
• 1 cup Sugar
• 0.5 cup Water
• 1 tbsp White vinegar

Steps

1. 1

   Cook the bacon in a skillet until well browned and crispy. Set the bacon aside and reserve some of the rendered fat.

2. 2

   While the bacon is cooking, dice the red bell pepper and place it in a small saucepan.

3. 3

   Add the white vinegar, sugar, and water to the bell pepper. Cook slowly over low heat.

4. 4

   When the mixture comes to a boil, continue cooking until it thickens and reaches the consistency shown in the video.

5. 5

   Add the browned bacon with some of its rendered fat and mix. Let the mixture cool so the bacon retains its crispy texture.

6. 6

   Spoon the bell pepper and bacon mixture over the cream cheese.

7. 7

   Refrigerate for 30 minutes and serve chilled.
