Bacon and egg roll


Nothing says breakfast to me like a big bacon and egg roll. But it can’t be any old bacon and egg roll…it needs to be made a certain way which generally means I am making it!

You see if I am going to devour something as ‘sinful’ and a bacon and egg roll then I am going to do it right.

To start with I like to use the most rusting bread roll I can find, you know those lovely chewy rolls with lots of gritty bits. Then scoop the middle of the roll so it isn’t so ‘bready’and butter it generously.  The 2 slices of bacon needs to be free range and have just the right amount of fat on it to get the bacon nice and crispy and leave enough fat behind to cook a lovely soft free range egg. I also like to add a good handful of peppery rocket, a blob of really good Dijon mustard, a squirt of tomato sauce and lashings of salt and pepper,

You see that is how I like to start my day on the weekend there is no way possible that I could have a bad day with a breakfast like that…How does your weekend start?
