Ingredients
Directions
- Slice off a small “lid†from the top of the bread and set it aside.
- Carefully remove the soft inner bread (crumb), tearing it into small pieces. Cover with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out.
- In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped onion, shredded cheeses, diced flamengo, chouriço, and bacon (cut into small ¼-inch / 0.5 cm pieces).
- Add the mayonnaise, vinegar or lemon juice, and mustard.
- Mix everything very well using a spoon until combined.
- Fill the hollowed bread loaf with the mixture. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 340°F (170°C) for about 1 hour.
- Occasionally check and stir the filling with a fork to ensure it melts evenly.
- About 10 minutes before removing from the oven, remove the foil and place the “lid†of the bread back on top to crisp.
- Serve warm, with the reserved bread pieces or with toast on the side.
