The rock legend led comedian Romesh Ranganathan through the steps to make the snack during a conversation about new cookbook Linda McCartney’s Family Kitchen, with his daughter Mary McCartney revealing: ‘In a McCartney sandwich we are not afraid of a condiment.’
‘I do a very good sandwich,’ the Beatles icon said.
Diving into the build, he explained: ‘I take a bagel, I cut it in three.
‘Often you have two bagels, so now you cut it into six. So you’ve got a top and a bottom, a top and a bottom, and two middles.
‘You can get three sandwiches out of that.’
The Let It Be singer then explained the mechanics of the bagel – adding protective structural layers.
‘So the bottom layer I put Marmite on and then I would put a little bit of lettuce, because I’m going to put hummus on but it’s going to go through the hole if I don’t put lettuce on,’ he said.
‘You might get a little sliced cheese on there, you might have one slice of tomato, then you might have a pickle or two.
‘Then you go back to your lettuce barrier, because there’s another hole on the top remember, so you’ve got to protect it from that.
‘Then I put on honey mustard.’ Read more from Metro.
