- Make the batter first.
- Put the flour and salt in a mixing bowl.

- Leave to rest for at least an hour.
- While the batter is resting, bring a large pan of water to the boil.
- Add the chard leaves and boil for 2 mins.
- Drain and plunge into cold water to refresh, then drain again.
- When cool enough to handle, squeeze out any excess liquid with your hands, then roughly chop the leaves.
- Stir the melted butter into the batter.
- Lightly oil a heavy frying pan and heat to a medium to high heat.
- Put a good tbsp batter into the pan, rolling it around to cover the surface.
- Cook until golden (approx 1 min or so) then carefully turn over.
- Crack an egg into the centre.
- Sprinkle 100g chard and 30g cheese over the whole galette.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- When the underside is golden, use a spatula to lift then your fingertips to pinch four corners inwards to make a square.
- Serve straight away.
- Repeat with the rest of the batter.
