EGG & BACON SALAD

1 packet of streaky bacon (1⁄2 lb/250 g)
4 eggs, hard-boiled
1 bunch of spring onions
1 iceberg lettuce
2 radishes
4 tbsp vinegar
4 tsp sugar
Parsley
Sesame seeds
Oil
Salt & pepper
Method
1. Hard-boil the eggs in the usual way while you snip the bacon
into smallish pieces and fry in a large pan till crisp and golden.
2. Remove the bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon and leave
to cool quickly on a large plate. (Cool the cooked hard-boiled
eggs in cold water.)
3. Fry the chopped spring onions and a handful of sesame seeds
in the same oil, adding a little more oil or a tablespoon of butter
if you think the pan’s too dry, then cook for a couple of minutes
till the onions are slightly soft.
4. Stir in the vinegar and sugar with a couple of tablespoons of
water and bring to the boil.
5. Take the pan off the heat as soon as the liquid boils; pour the
contents into another container and leave to cool.
6. Meanwhile, wash and shred the lettuce and mix with the finely
sliced radishes in a salad bowl.
7. Add the bacon to the salad bowl and pour over the cooled
onion dressing. Top with the chopped hard-boiled eggs,
sprinkle with parsley and season with salt and pepper.
