Blueberry Pancakes
inspired by The Ebrington Arms All this pub food and talk of pubs has got me thinking. We know what makes great pub food. But what actually makes a pub a pub? And what makes it great? Think about it. There is actually very little…

Breakfast
Beetroot Hummus, Avocado & Feta on Sourdough
inspired by Avobar As predicted the day after our kitchen wall came down it started to rain. However I don’t think anyone is going to be holding me accountable. After the heatwave we have just had rain feels amazing. What doesn’t feel amazing, however, is…
Morcilla & Fried Egg on Toast with Spicy Tomato Ketchup
inspired by Miss Tapas When one has reached a certain age, and the frivolities of youth have palled, one’s best thoughts are turned in the channel of food. Man’s first study is not man, but meals. Guy Beringer, “Brunch, A Plea” first published in Hunter’s…
Day 88: Ham, Egg & Chips Stack
inspired by The Breakfast Club This dish might be named after ham, egg and chips. But the reason I knew I had to cook it when I saw a picture of this dish is because of another classic combo. Cheese and pineapple. I love cheese…
Day 76: Sweet Potato, Courgette & Feta Fritters with a Poached Egg

Day 61: Croque Madame
inspired by Boulangerie Jade Since getting a ham and cheese croissant from Boulangerie Jade in Blackheath earlier this week I have been craving more melted cheese. I also only have one duck egg left. The duck eggs that I bought by accident in the supermarket.…
Day 58: Herb Omelette
inspired by Balthazar After my not entirely successful attempt at Tart au Citron, and as I’m feeling a bit low on energy, it’s time to shake things up. The tough thing about staying at home with no work to do, is that it’s much harder…
Day 53: Bacon Naan
inspired by Dishoom Clearing out of the fridge the other day reminded me that I still have some tomato and chilli jam left from when I made Grilled Mackerel. Now I know exactly what to do with this! The legendary Dishoom bacon naan roll. As…
Day 45: Pancakes with Strawberries & Clotted Cream
inspired by Riding House Café Hooray its a Bank Holiday! A day off work, no commute, no…. Oh wait hang on. I have to admit after 7 weeks of no work a Bank Holiday doesn’t seem to be quite the treat it usually is. The…
