    I have so many because I realised recently that most of my favourite foods are basically if not literally sandwiches in some form. What springs to mind now though is the English Fry-up crammed in to a baguette. I almost said the ‘full-English’ but admittedly it’s not quite the full English.

    • A crusty but still quite soft baguette is best, similar to bahn-mi bread but longer and not as chewy
    • 2 fried eggs
    • 2 Cumberland pork sausage (or Irish sausages if you can get them 'cos they’re so good) slided in to longish strips on a bias
    • Long rasher bacon strips to match the length of the baguette (can fold them if they are a bit too long)
    • 2 hash browns
    • Heinz baked beans (just a couple of teaspoons)
    • Brown sauce
    • Ketchup
    • A glare from the grumpy Polish woman that made it for you.

    Ok it’s just a well known breakfast but shoved in a baguette but somehow it does something magical to it. Especially loved this in the UK when I had a bad hangover and I could just about drag myself to the little Polish run cafe near my place. They were great, albeit grumpy.
