Method


  1. Whisk together the eggs, cream, sugar, cinnamon and mixed spice. Dip the crumpets into the mixture to coat.

  2. Melt the butter in a non stick frying pan and fry the crumpets, drizzling over extra mixture, if needed, for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden.

  3. For the sauce, place the mandarins and syrup with the white wine vinegar and sugar into a saucepan and boil to reduce for 2-3 minutes.

  4. Whip the cream and fold through the orange zest.

  5. To serve, place two crumpets on each of two plates, top with a dollop of the orange cream and drizzle over the syrup to finish.
