Ingredients

5 ounces plain flour (a small tumbler full)
9 fluid ounces milk (a small tumbler full)
3 large eggs, beaten
2 slices bacon, chopped very finely
1 pinch mustard powder
8 ounces mature medium cheddar, grated (A heaped tumbler full)
1 tomatoes, sliced into 6 slices. (For a tumbler use a medium child's glass)

Directions

1

Put a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 200*C (425*F).
2

Butter a round, shallow, ovenproof dish, about 8 inches in diameter.
3

In a large bowl beat the flour, milk, egs, bacon, mustard powder and about two thirds of the cheese with a generous pinch of salt and a good grinding of pepper, until everything's combined into a runny batter.
4

Tip the batter into the prepared oven dish,lay the tomato slices on top (don't worry if they sink, they're supposed to) and scatter over the remaining cheese.
5

Set the dish on the hot baking sheet and bake for 35 to 45 minutes until it has puffed up and is crispy and golden brown.
6

Leave it to cool for a minute or two, but not too long or it will deflate.
7

Serve the puff cut into wedges with a crunchy salad on the side.
