Crispy bacon

• sliced bacon↗6-8 rashers

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Place the bacon in a non‑stick pan in a single layer. Cover with another heavy pot or pan that fits tightly over the bacon. If it isn’t very heavy, cover with another pot or any heat‑proof heavy object.

2. 2

   Fry over medium‑low heat for 10‑15 minutes until golden and extremely crisp. Check the bacon halfway – raise the heat slightly if there’s a lot of liquid in the pan, and flip the bacon. Continue frying until the bacon is evenly golden and crisp.

3. 3

   Drain the excess fat onto a paper towel before adding to sandwiches or crumbling over salads or soups.
