Mad rice.
or 'arroz maluco', as the Brazilians call it.

- Rice
- Bacon
- egg
- Onion
- Pack of ready salted crisps. The 'ridged' ones work best.


Boil some uncle bens in a bag, leave to cool.

Quantites for one bag of rice. Adjust as you like.

Grill / bake 4 rashers of bacon till crispy, leave to cool.

Fry the bejesus out of an egg, both sides. You want the yolk solid. Leave to cool.

Chop up an onion, fry it in a mixture of half sunflower oil, half butter - the butter will make it soft, which is what you want. Cook till brown, leave to cool.

I find leaving these in kitchen paper is good, you don't want it too greasy.

Chop the crispy bacon into small pieces. Do the same with the egg. Say 0.5cm kind of size.

Squash the crisps, you want small pieces but it's not a precise science.

Heat up a big frying pan, or a wok. No oil required, just a hot pan.

Put the rice into the hot pan, and chuck everything except the crisps in. Give it a good stir, so all the stuff is well mixed in. Keep going till the rice is wrmed up.

At the last minute, chuck half the broken crisps in, give them a quick stir.

Put in a bowl, put the other half of the crisps on top.

Voila.

Tip - this can be a bit dry, so goes best with something that has a bit of moisure. A rare steak maybe.
