## Steps

1. Mix the water with the yeast in a bowl, then add the olive oil, flax seeds, olives, salt and wholemeal flour, until the ingredients come together. (5 min)

4. Knock back the dough, shape into 10 buns and let them rise on a baking tray lined with baking paper for 90 minutes. (90 min)
5. Brush the buns with olive oil and sprinkle with flaked salt so the buns turn golden. (2 min)
6. Put the buns in a preheated fan oven at 250°C, immediately lower the temperature to 200°C and bake for 15–18 minutes. (18 min)
7. Let the buns cool on a wire rack.
8. Put all the patty ingredients in a bowl (sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped bacon, egg, paprika, garlic, salt) and mix well together. (5 min)
9. Shape into 4 patties and press them flat.
10. Fry the patties in butter over medium heat. (5 min)
11. Turn the patties and fry for a further 4-5 minutes. (5 min)
12. Just before the patties are done, place a slice of cheese and crispy bacon on each patty. (1 min)
