Bacon and Fried Egg Roll

There was some discussion in the Guardian a couple of weeks ago about how to cook the perfect bacon sandwich. Frankly, I think a bacon sandwich is a bacon sandwich and there is no perfect version as such because everyone has their own particular preference as to how they like it. My way is to have 3 or 4 smoked back rashers in a freshly cooked, freshly cut, white crusty roll with brown sauce, traditionally HP Sauce. I'm a relatively recent brown sauce convert having previously always had tomato ketchup with such items such as bacon rolls. However, I have found that the rich tanginess of brown sauce is better suited to the saltiness of bacon rather than the sweet, vinegary quality which tomato ketchup brings. However, a Bacon and Fried Egg Roll this evening, leaves a slight dilemma - I go with tomato ketchup.

  1. Okay, here's the deal with sauces - featuring Uncle Galz. Sausages; tomato preferably but brown is acceptable, bacon is ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS brown sauce, no matter what the occasion. If you are out of brown sauce then it's NO sauce. This rule also applies to egg and black pudding.

    Thank you.
