Ingredients
200 g plain flour
salt
3 eggs
5 dl milk
75 g butter
250 g slices smoked streaky bacon
(or proper speck from a delicatessen shop)
Preparation
Place the flour in a bowl, add the salt and the eggs and mix well together.
Add the milk in stages and stir until a smooth batter is obtained.
Melt a knob of butter in a medium sized non-stick frying pan.
Put 3 / 4 slices of bacon / speck in the pan and fry until the fat runs out.
Put a large scoop of batter into the pan and spread this over the bacon / speck filling the entire pan.
Fry the pancake over medium heat, until the underside is lightly browned and the top is no longer liquid.
Turn the pancake over and fry the other side until light brown.
Add a knob of butter, salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve immediately or keep warm on a plate over a pan with hot water.
