I love breakfast time, my favourite meal of the day. I am always looking for new things to try with my Crisperplate and this little recipe was delicious and baked in just 15 minutes too.

 

Makes 4 servings.

4 Charlotte potatoes – grated with skin on (more flavour in the skin)

8 slices of smoked bacon – back or rashers either is fine

Cheddar cheese – grated (amount to your preference)

6 green spring onions – chopped

6 large eggs

1/2 cup of milk

1 tbsp flour

salt & pepper to season

 

  1. Grate potatoes and squeeze out excess water, pat dry and sprinkle the flour over to soak up any water.                                                                                                  20180512_090407
  2. Preheat the crisper plate for 2 minutes then evenly lay the grated potatoes onto plate and season. Leave some spaces on the plate as this allows the potatoes to crisp up better. Cook for 6 minutes                                                                                                      20180512_092051
  3. Place the bacon onto the potatoes and cook for 3 minutes or longer if your prefer extra crispy bacon.                                                                                                       20180512_092237
  4. Meanwhile whisk the eggs with the milk and season
  5. Evenly spread the spring onions and cheese onto the bacon and potatoes then pour over the egg mixture and season.                                                                                                                         20180512_093117 20180512_093227
