Crispy Bacon Rice

A speedy supper dish for those times when you want something comforting and tasty but with minimal effort. Made using store cupboard ingredients with frozen peas and our dry cured bacon. Don’t be tempted to use inferior bacon as you won’t get the intensity of flavour during the dry frying, just horrible white, watery goo!
