Anova published her project Squidgy Carbonara Crumpets 17 Oct 09:00

Step 1
Add the lardons to a frying pan (skillet) and cook them over a medium heat until very crispy.
Step 2
In the meantime, whisk up the eggs in a bowl using a fork.
Add 70 g (1 cup) of grated Parmesan and season generously with black pepper. It should be very peppery so go wild with the grinding. Whisk everything together, and set aside.
Step 3
Once the bacon is crispy, remove it from the heat. KEEP THE PAN WITH THE BACON FAT!
Step 4
Pour the bacon bits into the egg mixture and mix it in.
Step 5
Dunking time. Dunk each crumpet into the egg mixture for at least 30 seconds so it can absorb the eggy mixture.
Step 6
Place your crumpets, hole-side down, in the bacon fat pan, pouring over any excess bacony bits. Give it a good press with a spatula.
Step 7
Fry for 3–4 minutes on each side over a medium heat until golden, and then remove from the heat. Serve with an extra grating of Parmesan and enjoy!
