WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- Heat a frying pan over a medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crispy, adding the tomatoes after a few minutes to brown them a little. You shouldn't need to add any oil. When cooked, remove them from the pan and keep warm in a low oven. Remove any remaining fat from pan.
- Meanwhile, beat the egg with the milk, seasoning and thyme. Dip the bagel into the mixture, soaking the cut side especially, to use it all up.
- Add butter or oil to pan and, when hot, add bagel halves, cut side down, and cook for a few minutes until browning. Turn over and cook base until almost crispy.
- Serve each person a bagel half with 3 rashers of bacon and 3 tomatoes.
Top Tip for making Eggy bagel with streaky bacon
If you don't have bagels, use a thick slice of day-old bread. If you prefer a sweet version of this, leave out the bacon and tomatoes and sprinkle with sugar or drizzle with honey.
