Put the chickpeas into a processor and whiz until finely chopped.

Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add heaped spoonfuls of the mixture and fry for 2 to 3 minutes each side. You will make about 6 small pancakes. Set aside.

Remove, place in egg cups and carefully slice the tops off. Slice the pancakes into strips and serve next to the eggs for dunking and dipping.
