Sweetcorn Pancakes

Individual Christmas Plum Puddings

Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 115g self-raising flour
  • 1 egg
  • 125ml milk
  • Small can of sweetcorn, drained
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
  • Salt and black pepper
  • Olive oil

To Serve

  • Crispy bacon rashers
  • 4 barely ripe bananas
  • 25g butter

Garnish

  • Chives

Method

Place the flour in a basin; make a well in the centre. Add the egg and half the milk, whisk together and then to a dropping consistency with the remaining milk.

Mix in the sweet corn, parsley and seasoning. Wipe the simmering plate with a little oil on a piece of kitchen paper. Drop tablespoons of the mixture onto the simmering plate, when bubbles rise to the surface, turn over and cook the other side.

Grill the bacon at the top of the roasting oven and sauté the bananas in the butter until heated through. Serve the pancakes with crisp grilled bacon, topped with banana and garnished with chives.

Conventional cooking: Cook the pancakes in a little oil in a frying pan. Grill the bacon.
