Laverbread cakes
Laverbread cakes are an essential part of a Welsh breakfast, but can also be served as a side dishes with roast meats.
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp laverbread
- 4 tbsp rolled oats
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 8 thin rashers streaky bacon
Method
In a small bowl, mix the laverbread and oats together. Divide the mixture into 8 peices and roll into small balls. Flatten the balls into small patties, roughly 4cm/1½ in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Fry the bacon until crispy and the fat has rendered. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
Add the cakes to the pan and fry on each side for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve the laverbread cakes with the crispy bacon on top.
