The Best Ever Bacon Sandwich No. 3 - The Old English

This is the final recipe on my little series of bacon sandwich recipes. It's a combination that's regularly eaten at weekends in our house. There's always a jar of marmalade on our breakfast table and very often a surplus rasher of bacon and a spare piece of toast, the combination is the perfect end to a lazy weekend breakfast.

I actually have to credit this fusion of flavours to my Dad. He was by no means a foodie and a hopeless cook, but he did once suggest that I whacked some marmalade into my bacon sarnie. The bitter sweet flavour of the marmalade contrasted perfectly with the salty bacon and I've never looked back. Asking for a bacon sandwich with marmalade in a café, I have on occasions been met with questions of , 'Are you pregnant?' However, don't let this put you off, it's a winner and even better with a great tasting Seville marmalade!

2 x Slices The Village Baking Co. Sourdough, toasted
4 x Rashers of Bacon (Back or Streaky, it's your choice)
