SERVES 2-3 | PREP 15 mins | COOK 20 mins

Ingredients

150g self-raising flour

½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp caster sugar

handful of chives, finely chopped, plus extra to serve

½ small red chilli, finely chopped, plus extra to serve

3 Freshlay Farms Golden Yolker eggs, 1 beaten

150ml whole milk

2 tbsp vegetable oil

6 rashers bacon

Greek yogurt, to serve (optional)

chilli jam, to serve (optional)

Method

1. To make the pancake batter, stir to combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, chives, chilli and a small pinch of flaky sea salt in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the beaten egg and milk until a smooth batter.

2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, then add 2 tbsp of the batter, spooning into a circle. You should be able to fit 2-3 at a time. Fry for 2 mins until small bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake, then flip and fry for another 1-2 mins until golden around the edges. Continue until all the batter is used, which should make around 6 medium pancakes.

3. Give the pan a quick wipe, then brush the bacon rashers with a little oil. Fry in the pan over a medium-high heat until crisp (this should take around 3-4 mins on each side), then set aside.

4. Crack 2 eggs into the same pan and fry for 3-4 mins until cooked through and the yolk is still runny.

5. Serve the pancakes along with a spoonful of yogurt and chilli jam, the crispy bacon and fried eggs, plus a sprinkling of chilli and chives.
