Hi can you make this without xanthan gum?

Hi Jayne,
The xanthan gum holds it all together.

easy to make and delicousReply
Am I wrong in thinking that the bacon is already cooked and cut up into small pieces?
Reply
Hi Alice,
In Australia, our bacon has already been smoked when we purchase it. If your bacon comes cured or raw, I would suggest cooking it first. I hope that helps!
