Irish Bacon Rashers
Irish Bacon Rashers, a classic Irish breakfast staple, are known for their hearty and fulfilling flavor. These bacon slices, cooked until golden brown and crispy in a pool of melted butter, create an irresistible aroma that fills your kitchen. This dish, traditionally served in Irish breakfasts, can also be a splendid addition to your sandwich or a standalone snack.
Ingredients
- Butter
- 2 tablespoons
- Irish bacon rashers
- 8 slices
Instructions
- Place a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan and allow it to melt completely, swirling the pan to coat the base evenly.
- Add the Irish bacon rashers to the pan, ensuring they are spaced apart to avoid overcrowding. Overcrowding may result in uneven cooking.
- Cook the rashers for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping once. The rashers should be crispy and golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove the rashers from the pan using a tong and drain the excess oil on paper towels to keep them crispy.
- Serve the rashers hot, ideally as part of a traditional Irish breakfast or tucked into a sandwich. Enjoy the hearty, savory flavor of this Irish classic.
Tips
- To achieve the perfect consistency, cook the rashers on medium-high heat. Cooking on high heat may cause the rashers to burn, and low heat might not give them the desired crispy texture.
- You can also bake the rashers in an oven preheated at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes for a healthier version.
