- STEP 1
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Boil the potatoes for 10-12 mins until almost tender.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the shallots and bacon until the shallots have softened. Beat the eggs, milk and cream with some seasoning.

Slice the potatoes thickly – you can skin them first if you like – and place in a large, shallow ovenproof dish.

Scatter over the bacon and shallots, then pour over the egg mixture and scatter on the cheese. Bake for 25-30 mins until set. Serve topped with dressed rocket.
