Ingredients

• Ingredients:
• 12 rashers smoked streaky bacon
• 3 x 400g tinned chopped tomatoes
• 6 slices overnight bread, toasted and thickly buttered
• 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 6 eggs
• 5 tbsp flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped
• 150g pinhead or coarse oatmeal
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Directions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over a medium heat then add the bacon and cook until just crispy and it’s released all the fat.

2. Add the tinned tomatoes, mix well and bring to a simmer.

3. Add the oatmeal and cook for 1 minute.

4. Add the parsley, mix well then cover, turn the heat off and leave for 10-15 minute. The oatmeal will swell and cook in the heat of the mixture – it should be like a thick risotto.

5. Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil, add the vinegar and crack the eggs into the pan a couple at a time and poach for 2-3 minutes until done to your liking. Remove and dunk into iced water until ready to serve. Drop back into the simmering water for 30 seconds to heat through, then drain onto kitchen paper.

6. Serve the tomato mixture on the toasted bread with a poached egg on top.
