Bacon & Banana
Fish fingers, white bread with any ketchup but Heinz.
Or, sausage, bacon, potato bread, friend onion in a soda farl with ketchup (see above)
Bacon, Lettuce & Mayo
or
Salt & Vinegar Crisps.
Just had a Bánh mě for lunch, they take some beating.

Cheese and roast chicken crisps is another good one.
But the king of sarnies has to be bacon.
fish fingers, grated cheese and tommy sauce
Freshly-cooked crab, brown meat and claw meat mixed, with sliced cucumber and tomato, on crusty sourdough. Sex on a plate.
Chip butty. Doorstep bread, thick butter and hot chips. Washed down with Dandelion and Burdock.
Otherwise freshly made classics:
Fried egg
Egg and cress
Ham and mustard
Beef and horse radish
Potted beef
Cheese and onion
Cheese and piccalilli
Salmon and cucumber
In fact most things other than pre-packed sludge sandwiches.

Too many to choose from but in the premier league has to be a BLT.
Cold crisp lettuce, hot thick fried bacon, tomato and a dollop of mayo in a soft, buttered bun.
For a sammich - the BLT is hard to beat.........
But for a hot-filled roll, it has to be: BLACK PUDDING WITH FRIED EGG.
Oh! And chips in a roll is so-so-o wrong!
Thomasina Miers' Mexican Torta recipe is my favourite - sliced & fried chorizo, refried beans, mashed avocado with lime juice, lettuce & chipotle lime mayonnaise in a toasted ciabatta bun (the bun should be brushed with the oil from the chorizo frying and then grilled.
- Bread of your choice
- Cranberry jelly spread on bottom slice, then
- Crispy smoked bacon rashers, then
- Three large slices of fresh, moist turkey, then
- Pork, sage an onion stuffing, and finally
- The top slice
I make these for us every Christmas and they're the best sarnie ever!
Roast beef and english mustard with gherkins and fried onions , its quite good if you dip it in a cup of bovril too.
You will emanate fumes especially if you whack a wee bit of tabasco in there as well.
For Geordies of a certain vintage many a Proustian moment can be prompted by 2 sarnie combinations:
- Grated cheddar and chopped scallions on white bread with loads of butter
- Proper ham cut from the bone from a proper butcher and pease pudding stottie; bit of mustard on the ham, bit of vinegar on the pease pudding
Both washed down with Ringtons tea, milk and 2.
Oh God I'm hungry now.
Cheers

I would struggle to put my favourites in any particular order, however, here are a few:
* Granary - nice ham, mature cheddar, English mustard spread on one slice and a dollop of mayo spread on the other;
* Brown - BLT;
* White crusty roll - cheese (cheddar) and pickle (Branston) with prawn cocktail crisps;
* White (preferably toasted) - peanut butter and apricot jam...
I'm off to make a ham and cheese :)
- Granary
- Pesto
- Mozzarella
- Salami
- Sun Dried Tomato
Done.
Thin baguette
Very small quantity of Nduja
Crushed tomatoes
Lambs lettuce
Serrano ham
Extra virgin olive oil
Small clove of garlic grated on the bread.
If can't be bothered bacon on a crusty roll with brown sauce
Hot salt beef for me!
Cheers,
Neil.
Too many to choose from but one I have just ate is bacon & sausage on wholemeal bread with cheese & tomato ketchup on top.
Bacon
Sausages sliced (down the middle sausages) and fried
Scotch pancake
Black pudding
Topped with a soft centre poached egg
Usually with a bit of tomato sauce, but I can use others, or sometimes hot chopped tomatoes over the pancake.
It works in a bap, or slices of whatever bread is in.
It's just a matter of time...
The Club Sandwich is the king of sandwiches - ideally when it contains egg and/or avocado along with the regular bits.
If anyone fancies one and is feeling flush, The Dorchester does the best club sandwich going!
It's got to be the famous egg banjo.
Crusty bread, good quality ham and enough English mustard to get that burning sensation at the back of your nose.
No no no.... you're doing it all wrong....
You get a whole punnet of smallish vine tomatoes, right? You slice them it to two horizontally. You arrange them cut side up on a baking tray. You put one drop of balsamic vinegar and one drop extra virgin olive oil on each cut half, in that order. You dust the whole lot with a little freshly ground black pepper. You put two or three flakes of maldon salt on each cut half. You set the oven to fan and to 120 degrees C. You put the tomatoes in the oven and you wait for an hour and a half....
You split a ciabatta in half length ways and toast the cut sides. You cut a clove of garlic in half and you rub it on the toasted sides of ciabatta, just to get a 'perfume' of garlic on the bread... no more than that....
You take a whole fresh mozzarella and you tear it up and put it on the toasted sides of ciabatta. You put both sides of the ciabatta in the oven for the last five minutes with the tomatoes until the mozzarella just begins to melt...
You take the whole lot out of the oven...
You pile all of the tomatoes on one slice of the ciabatta covered with slightly melted mozzarella...
You take half a dozen fresh basil leaves and you lay those on top of the tomatoes...
You take the other half of ciabatta covered with slightly melted mozzarella and you put in to top of the tomatoes and basil... and.....
You press the whole thing down until the tomato juices start to flow... You cut it up into four or five pieces and give it to people you like...
They will love you very long time....
Or....
German Pepper Salami and Coleslaw sandwich.

Cheese and Pickle; King of Sandwiches
It's what Bread is made for.
End Thread ;)
Tuna & cheese melt on a Ciabatta bun, plenty of Lurpak and a bit of salad on top to keep things healthy ;)
Or a Maltese ftira with tuna, onions, tomatoes and capers. Sandwich of the gods...
Most of you are way wrong.
Smoked salmon and cream cheese, lovely
Yesterday's chicken jalfrezi, with loads of chicken and sauce
and if you are feeling a bit basic, a nice egg and tomato sandwich is marvellous.
Well, best sandwich for me is the one that I get every time I go back to Florence (about four times a year): "Schiacciata con la sbriciolona". "Schiacciata" is a crispy focaccia with rock salt and oil. "Sbriciolona" is a cured pork, fennel and garlic salame. The schiacciata is sliced open, filled with sbriciolona, artichoke pate, dried tomatoes and sheep cheese cream.
Best place to go is called "L'antico Vinaio" which is rightfully very famous. A couple of good friends, some red wine, this sandwich/panino and is heaven.
In UK I quite like toasted cheese sandwich, croque monsieur and BLT.
Rare roast beef with rocket and horseradish
And a pint to go with it
Slurp
No, no, no - waaaaay too complicated.
2 slices of bread, some butter, a slice of dutch cheese and if you're feeling a bit wild a dollop of mayonnaise. And don't you dare add meat, combinations not possible. (The dutch will get it )
Or peanut butter and jam.
Lots of great suggestions on here, but I'll add one of my favourites:
Egg mayonnaise and beetroot.
So clever my foot fell off.
Has to be this one:
While sounding extremely tasty, some of the above seem to involve a lot of hard work and exotic ingredients.
To me a sandwich needs to be simple and easy to compile otherwise it is a meal rather than a quick snack.
I fancied one when I got home today: Multi-seedy bread spread with mayo, slice of thick ham, a huge handful of iceberg and some vittorio tomatoes, a shake of seasalt and all crushed down to fit in the mouth. Nice, and quick.
[QUOTE=SimonK;4352369]Geordies and Proust in the same sentence - only on TZ-UK.
Yes well it's a little known fact that Marcel's asthma which led him to a life of cosseted introspection and aestheticism in various French salons while producing enormous literary works was in fact contracted during a brief teenage sojourn to the pigeon lofts of North Shields.
