Italians on Horseback

Devils on horseback- I had them as prunes wrapped in streaky bacon growing up- some would argue that the real "devils" are chicken livers wrapped in bacon. Angels on horseback are supposed to be oysters wrapped in bacon- my grandma make them with dried apricots.

Returning home exhausted without having shopped for real food for a while, I resorted to what I will call "Italians on Horseback". I had 6 tomatoes and a pack of bacon rashers, both of which were in need of consumption. I halved the bacon longways and quartered the tomatoes.

Our oven is broken and a mystery unto itself. These should have gone into a baking tray with a drizzle of olive oil- however, they went into a griddle pan on the hob with a generous sprinking of sage and occasional turning.

An excellent and easy supper for two with a piece of brown toast!
