Bubble and squeak
My Christmas leftover bubble and squeak combines roast potatoes, veg and beef into a crisp, caramelised pancake with fried eggs.
Ingredients
Directions

- Step 1: Place the leftover roast potatoes, vegetables, and meat (if using) in a medium-sized non-stick or cast-iron frying pan. Set the heat to medium. Mash all the vegetables together using a potato masher. If your meat is low in fat, add the oil at this stage. If it's high in fat, wait until the fat is rendered before adding more oil.
- Step 2: After mashing the potatoes and mixing everything together, firmly press the mixture into the pan to form one thick pancake-like shape.
- Step 3: Fry the bubble and squeak gently for 15-20 minutes. This slow cooking helps develop caramelisation and ensures everything is warmed through.
- Step 4: Carefully flip the bubble and squeak out of the pan. Then, in the same pan, fry your eggs to serve on top of the bubble and squeak.
