Ingredients

  • 1 slice M&S soft wholemeal bread, torn
  • 4 M&S frozen baked jacket potatoes
  • 4 tbsp M&S soured cream
  • 2 tbsp M&S mayonnaise
  • 1 M&S lemon, zest and juice
  • 240g pack M&S Collection British Outdoor Bred Dry Cured Smoked Streaky Bacon
  • 300g M&S Isle of Wight Arlintia tomatoes, diced
  • 2 M&S Little Gem lettuce, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp M&S olive oil

Method

  • Step 1

    Blitz the wholemeal bread in a food processor to form breadcrumbs and set aside.
  • Step 2

    Cook the jacket potatoes in the microwave for 7 mins, according to the pack instructions.
  • Step 3

    Meanwhile, mix the soured cream, mayonnaise and lemon zest in a small bowl, and season with black pepper. Set aside.
  • Step 4

    Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and fry the bacon for 4–5 mins, turning halfway, until crisp.
  • Step 5

    Remove the bacon from the pan and drain on kitchen towel. Pop the same pan back on the heat, then fry the breadcrumbs for 2–3 mins, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crisp.
  • Step 6

    Dress the tomatoes and lettuce with a squeeze of lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Step 7

    To assemble, cut a cross in the potatoes, top with lemony soured cream mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, bacon and crunchy bacon breadcrumbs.
