Ingredients

700g King Edward or Maris Piper potatoes (peeled weight), cut into even-sized pieces

500g spring greens, stems removed and shredded

1 onion, finely chopped

1 tbsp sunflower oil, plus extra for frying the eggs

25g butter

4 rashers smoked streaky bacon, chopped

4 large free-range eggs

Method

1
Pre-heat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Put the potatoes in a pan and add just enough water to cover, bring to the boil and simmer until tender. Drain well and mash.
2
Heat another pan of water until boiling, add the spring greens, return to the boil and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and press lightly with the back of a spoon to remove any excess water.
3
Fry the onion in the oil and half the butter until soft. Add to the potato with any fat in the pan with the greens.
4
Cook the bacon in the pan until it starts to crisp. Add to the potato with the pan juices. Season and mix well. Leave to cool.
5
Shape into 8 cakes, about 1.5cm thick. Put on the baking tray and brush with the rest of the butter. Cook for 20-25 minutes.
6
Fry the eggs and serve with the bubble and squeak.
