How to make perfect torreznos, fried bacon

Step 1

Let the bacon dry at room temperature for 24 hours. Cover it with a perforated bell to avoid that residues fall on it. You can also cover it with a little kitchen paper towel.

Step 2

Pour sunflower oil into a large skillet. Enough to cover half of the bacon. Place on medium low heat.

Step 3

Fry for 30-40 minutes over medium heat. The oil should cover half of the torrezno. If it doesn't, add a little more until it reaches that height.

Step 4

After a few minutes, bubbles will begin to appear on the skin. Leave it upside down until they appear all over the surface.

Step 5

Once the skin is covered with bubbles and with a textured and golden crust, remove torreznos from the frying pan with a slotted spoon.

Step 6

Place on kitchen paper or in a large strainer to drain.

Step 7

Leave to cool for a few minutes before eating.

Step 8

Enjoy!
