Savoury pancakes are perfect for a lazy breakfast or brunch. We tried Two Chicks new ready-made liquid pancake batter and were blown away by how blimmin easy the whole thing was. It’s particularly handy if you’re making pancakes for the whole gang as you just pour and go! Hurrah!!
Serves 2
Few drops of vegetable oil
300ml Two Chicks Pancake Batter
6 slices pancetta or streaky bacon
1 large ripe avocado, halved, pitted and peeled
4tbsp soured fresh cream
A few slices of fresh red chilli (optional)
2 handfuls rocket leaves
6 cherry tomatoes, halved
Freshly ground black pepper
1 Heat a pancake pan or frying pan and add 3-4 drops of vegetable oil.
2 Pour in half the Two Chicks Pancake Batter and cook over a medium-high heat until the surface has set – about 1-2 minutes. Flip the pancake over to cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until golden. Transfer to a warm serving plate.
3 Cook the second pancake in the same way, adding another 3-4 drops of vegetable oil to the pan. At the same time, cook the pancetta or streaky bacon until crisp, either by grilling it, or cooking it in a separate frying pan. Mash the avocado with a fork.
4 Put the pancakes onto two warmed plates and share the mashed avocado, soured cream and pancetta or streaky bacon between them. Sprinkle with the chilli slices (if using) and serve with the rocket and cherry tomatoes, seasoned with a little black pepper.
