Today is my birthday (21 if you're interested) but, as explained yesterday, excuses don't fly in this game. Lolz did however allow me to open a few presents before proclaiming loudly that she was getting hungry and ordering me into the kitchen. Incidentally, my presents did include some measuring spoons, an "Antipasti Plank", a serving platter and a lemon squeezing gadget. Definitely a bit of a theme going on...
Anyway, this is my second breakfast of the challenge and at this point I should mention that the title is slightly misleading since my sweetcorn is still sitting patiently in the freezer unopened, as I somehow missed that particular line of the recipe. All the other ingredients did however make it in and the end result was a really nice, healthier twist on the traditional pancakes and bacon dish. The cheese and chilli adds a subtle savoury kick to the pancakes without detracting from their fluffy lightness.
Lolz loved the maple glazed pancetta but felt the coriander was slightly overpowering. She gave the dish 9/10. Difficulty rating 3/10 - tossing pancakes is not my strong point.
All in all an excellent start to my 22nd year!
