Stage 1 - 3 min.

Cut 100 g belly (streaky) bacon into strips (you can use ham instead if you prefer).

You can bring a little more sophistication to the recipe by adding other ingredients to the saucepan in stage 3: a bayleaf, a clove of garlic "en chemise", a sprig of thyme, or any other herbs you like.
