Warning: this sandwich is seriously addictive! So simple, yet utterly delicious. Frying the peaches in butter results in salty-sweet caramelisation on their edges, which goes so well with the brie.

Bacon & Brie Sandwich with Caramelised Herby Peaches
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
- 2 sprigs of thyme, leaves picked
- 1 peach, stoned (pitted) and cut into 8 pieces
- 3 rashers smoked back bacon
- 1-2 slices sourdough bread
- 3-4 slices brie
- watercress, to serve
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a small frying pan (skillet) over a medium heat and add the thyme leaves. Add the peach slices and leave to caramelise for 5 minutes before turning them and adding the bacon. Cook the bacon on both sides until crispy – this could take 15–20 minutes because of the extra butter caramelising the peaches.
- Spoon the bacon, peaches and some of their cooking juices onto a slice of sourdough. Add the brie and some watercress, then either top with another slice of bread or eat as an open sandwich.
