Beautiful Bacon and Egg Sandwich

Inspired by one of my favourite shows - Red Dwarf.

In the Season 2 episode “Thanks For All the Memories,” Lister creates a similar sandwich for Rimmer to try. As the drunk Rimmer describes it: "He feels like he's having a baby and it's incredible... all the ingredients are wrong... but put them together and somehow it works..." I created my own take on Lister’s iconic sandwich with my favourite chili sauce and chutney, bacon, and eggs.

Great hangover food

You don't have to be drunk for this sandwich - it's enjoyable sober as well and really easy to make. The chutney and hot sauce add an extra element, making it more than your ordinary bacon and egg sandwich. I use white bread in my recipe. I think it adds more simplicity and believe it or not, helps make this sandwich better.

RECIPE

Makes 1 Serve

Preparation & Cooking Time: Roughly 10 Minutes

Shit The Bed hot sauce (or your favorite hot sauce), to taste

Fruit chutney, to taste

2 Eggs

2 Slices (Rashers) Bacon

3 Slices White Bread

50 grams butter for Cooking

Butter or Margarine for Spreading on the Bread

2 Slices Cheese (Optional, I prefer Sliced Processed Cheese)

INGREDIENTS

DIRECTIONS

Chop the bacon in halves.

Melt the butter in a pan on medium heat. Add the bacon to the pan.

While the bacon is cooking, butter the bread slices. My preferred brands of fruit chutney and hot sauce. Spread the chutney and hot sauce on the bottom of the middle layer slice and the bottom of the top layer slice.

Cook the bacon until it begins to brown, then move it to the side of the pan. Crack the two eggs into the pan, cooking them to your liking. Flip the eggs and continue to cook them to your preferred doneness. I only flip mine for 30 seconds as I like the yolk to be a little runny.

Begin creating your sandwich by stacking a fried egg and then bacon on the bottom slice, adding the middle slice and repeating, and then topping it off with the top slice of bread. Enjoy!
