Ingredients
Method

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons light olive oil
  • 1 egg (room temperature)
  • 4 rashers streaky bacon
  • 1 tablespoon tomato chutney
  • 1 ciabatta roll, cut in half
  • Method

  • 1
    Put the uncoated frying pan onto a medium heat and preheat for a couple of minutes.
  • 2
    Add the light olive oil and as soon as the oil starts to ripple gently crack the egg into the pan.
  • 3
    Leave the egg for around 2 minutes and don’t be tempted to move it at this stage.
  • 4
    Add the bacon to the pan and cook until crispy on one side.
  • 5
    Turn over the bacon and at the same time flip a little oil over the egg white.
  • 6
    Spread the chutney over the base of the roll and remove the crispy bacon from the pan and place onto the roll.
  • 7
    Remove the egg from the pan and put it on top of the bacon. Put the bread roll top onto the egg and serve.
 
If making more than one bacon buttie, cook the bacon first and then remove from the pan and keep warm. Add more oil to the pan and fry multiple eggs as per the method.
The pan must be left to go completely cold before washing – when cold add hot soapy water and leave to soak for 10 minutes.
