Ingredients
To make Scrambled Eggs on Pea Pancakes, you'll need:
FOR THE PEA PANCAKES:
  • 400g frozen peas
  • 2 tbsp. cornflour
  • 2 free range eggs
  • 4 tbsp. olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to season
FOR THE SCRAMBLED EGGS:
  • 4 free range eggs
  • 75g butter
  • 1.5 tbsp. chopped chives

Method

FOR THE PEA PANCAKES:
  • Cover the peas with boiling water in a saucepan.
  • Bring the water to the boil and cook the peas for 3 minutes, then drain them in a colander and whizz them in a food processor along with the two eggs, cornflour, salt and pepper.
  • Make eight small pancake shapes with the purée using a spoon. 
  • They should be about half an inch thick. Heat some of the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat.
  • Cook the pancakes for about two minutes on each side. Put the pancakes to one side in a covered oven proof dish.
FOR THE SCRAMBLED EGG:
  • Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat the butter in a pan on a gentle heat.
  • Once the butter is foaming, add in the eggs and stir thoroughly.
  • They will begin to cook immediately, but continue stirring so that they scramble and don’t form a solid mass.
  • Once the eggs are cooked, place on the pea pancakes, which can be reheated in a preheated oven at Gas Mark 1 or 140°C for 1 minute or so if necessary.
  • Garnish with some chives and tuck in!
