You might like yours with a dollop of ketchup or a squeeze of HP sauce. But, for the perfect bacon sandwich, it's actually best to add nothing at all.

So claims a breakfast expert who says you need just bread, butter and bacon for your sarnie. Adding anything else – such as herbs, pomegranate seeds or even a side salad – is wrong.

Guise Bule, chairman of the English Breakfast Society, said the 'British institution' should be made using just three ingredients after hearing about other spins on the breakfast butty.

He added: '[Britons] know exactly what a bacon sandwich is. It's something that their mother used to make them with love and she used to make it the same way every time.

'Toasted white sliced bread, mildly salted English butter, and good old British back bacon. There is simply no substitute.'
