Growing up in a family with 4 kids and hard - working parents, my mother was a shift working cardiology nurse and there wasn’t always heaps of time to spend cooking.

Batter
- ½ tsp salt
- 4 large eggs
- 800 ml buttermilk

- Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the bacon in a baking dish and roast for 5-10 minutes or until golden.
