Method
step 1
Put the potato in a bowl and mix in the flour, baking powder and egg. Stir in the buttermilk, milk, spring onions and parmesan, and season really well.
step 2
Heat a frying pan and melt a knob of butter. Spoon in the batter to make small, 10cm-wide pancakes. When small bubbles appear, flip the pancakes and cook until golden. Serve with the pancetta, soft-boiled eggs, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of spring onions.
