Method

step 1
Heat a large saucepan filled with hot water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, gently drop in the diced potatoes (600 g) and cook for 10 minutes, until soft. Drain the potatoes and allow to steam dry. Once completely dry, mash with a potato masher until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
step 2
Heat a large non-stick frying pan on medium-high heat with 1 tbsp of olive oil. When the oil is hot add half the butter (25 g). When the butter is foaming, add the savoy (120 g) and spring onions (3) and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the cabbage is soft.
step 3
Remove from the pan and leave to cool. Add the mashed potato to a bowl along with the cooled cabbage and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and then add the cheddar (80 g) and mix again. Divide the mixture into 8 even-sized patties and pop them in the fridge to firm up for an hour.
step 4
Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4. Lay the bacon rashers (12 rashers) onto a lined oven tray and cook for 12-15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.
step 5
Dust the potato cakes in flour (2 tbsp), shaking off any excess. Add another splash of olive oil to a non-stick frying pan. When the oil is hot, add the potato cakes to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side. Flip each potato cake over and add the remaining butter (25 g) to the pan and cook for 2-3 more minutes or until golden brown.
step 6
Place a small frying pan onto a high heat and add a splash of oil to the pan. Place 4 eggs rings into the pan and crack an egg (4) into each one. Cook these for 3 minutes or until the white is cooked through but the yolks are still runny.
step 7
Place 2 potato cakes onto each plate and top these with a fried egg. Add the bacon to each plate.
step 7 Place 2 potato cakes onto each plate and top these with a fried egg. Add the bacon to each plate.
