A super-quick, super-easy and super-delicious sandwich great for beginner cooks like me or anybody who just wants to try something different! Equally appropriate as breakfast, a hangover cure or a late-night snack.
Ingredients:
- Three slices of bread
- Three eggs
- Four strips of bacon. Turkey bacon, prosciutto or pancetta will also work excellently.
- Chili Paste (Huy Fong works fine)
- Sweet chutney, like mango or tamarind
- Salt and pepper
With bacon: 1. Cook bacon until it's how you like it and remove it to a paper towel, leaving the bacon grease in the pan to cook the eggs
-
If your bread is too soft your sandwich will fall apart or dissolve. Get a decent level on toasting on your sandwich so you can go about eating your state of the art sandwich without worrying about the state of floor.
-
Assemble the sandwich. The order is really up to you, I do it like this so the first thing you taste is the chili paste which resolves into the sweetness of the chutney.
- Toast
- Chutney

- Proudly eat your work.
Variants:
(With prosciutto) Substitute step 2 for the following:
-
Set heat to medium-high, pour a couple tbsp of olive oil into pan when it's hot.
-
Throw prosciutto in and cook until browned and crispy. (Three minutes to four minutes depending on how crispy you like it.)
-
When adding chutney, use about half the amount you'd use on a bacon sandwich as not to overpower the prosciutto.
(With pancetta) Substitute step 2 for the following:
-
Set heat to high, pour a couple tsp (teaspoons not tablespoons) of olive oil into pan when it's hot.
-
Throw pancetta in to the pan, brown each side real quick and then turn down the heat down to medium. Cook for one to two minutes per side. Pancetta firms up quickly under heat so be careful not to overcook it unless you like your meat tough.
And finally- enjoy!!!
bon appetit
