I recently ate one of the best versions of pea salad I’ve ever had ... Pizzeria—tosses sweet peas with bacon, chunks of Gouda, and diced hard-boiled eggs. While it’s not a common side ...

Back bacon is far lower in fat than streaky bacon ... Served with crisp wholemeal croûtons and a perfectly poached egg, this is a salad to savour. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
