Bacon And Spring Onion Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl mix together everything except the oil to make a smooth batter.
• In a frying pan heat up about 2 tbsp oil, ensuring that it has coated all around the pan.
• Pour in 1/4 of the batter mix, spreading it around pan with a spatula. Cook until the edges start to brown.
• Flip pancake and cook the other side until it browns slightly.
• Repeat with the remaining batter until you have four large pancakes.
• Cut into wedges and serve hot.

Steps:

• Special Equipment: Food Processor
• In a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Discard bacon fat in the pan. In a food processor fitted with the grater attachment, push potato, onion and garlic through the grater. Remove mixture to a towel and squeeze out excess liquid. Place potato mixture in a large bowl and mix in sage, eggs, flour, cooked bacon and salt and pepper, to taste. Fill the skillet with 1/4-inch of vegetable oil and heat until it ripples. Once the oil is preheated, form potato cakes, measuring roughly 3 inches in diameter, and add to the pan. Continue forming patties, working in batches. Cook pancakes until crispy and nicely browned, pressing down on the pancakes periodically to flatten, about 2 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a preheated 275 degree F oven while remaining pancakes cook.

Steps:

• Whisk all ingredients except the onions in a bowl until smooth.
• Stir in the spring onions.
• Lightly coat a small frying pan with cooking spray.
• Place over med-high heat.
• Pour in the batter (amount depending on how big you want the pancakes to be) and swirl the pan to spread the mixture thinly.
• Cook for 2 minutes each side or until lightly browned.
• Keep pancakes warm while cooking the remainder.
• Serving suggestions- hoisin chicken/pork, char siu bbq pork, peking duck.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pan of salted water and boil until tender. Drain well, tip back into the pan, shake for 1 min over a gentle heat to dry them off, then mash and leave to cool.
• Put the cooled mash in a bowl with the flour and bicarb. Whisk 1 egg with the milk, season, tip into the bowl and whisk until smooth. Stir in the spring onions, reserving some to serve.
• In a non-stick frying pan, heat half the oil and butter until sizzling, then spoon in half the pancake batter to make 3 pancakes. Cook for 1 min or so on each side until browned and set underneath, then flip and cook the other side. Keep warm in the oven while you make 3 more pancakes.
• Wipe out the pan, add the bacon and sizzle until almost crisp. Push to one side and crack in the 2 remaining eggs - with a splash more oil if needed. Fry to your liking, then serve with the pancakes and bacon, sprinkled with the remaining spring onions.
