Jennifer Mallinson on how to make bacon crispy

Jennifer Mallinson, food writer, on how to make bacon crispy
Average rating: 3 out of 5 star rating

Cheap bacon is often pumped full of water to make it look plump. This means when you cook it, it's too wet to crisp up. For that crispy touch, buy good quality bacon and fry in a large pan over a medium heat (too high and it will burn), flipping it until it's lovely and brown.
