Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

This is a version of the Fernandez and Wells sandwich that I was scoffing the other week on my way through Soho. The quality of the black pudding is crucial as that cardboard-like stuff with the texture of sawdust just won't work.

8 baps or rolls or 8 slices of sourdough
Softened butter
6 duck's eggs, boiled for 5 minutes, then refreshed in cold water and peeled
4-6tbsp good-quality mayonnaise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
400-450g good-quality black pudding
Vegetable or corn oil for frying

Slice the black pudding into 1cm-thick slices if they are the large cylinder types or into 2 or 3 lengthways if they are the Bury-style puddings.

Chop the duck's eggs and mix with a good amount of mayonnaise and season well. Pan-fry the black pudding for about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Spread the butter on to the bread then spoon the egg mayonnaise on to one half with the black pudding on top and the other half of the bread on top.

Give the bread a light toasting on each side and serve.
