I agree on the pea shoots but samphire's OK. A general salty essence of the sea.

OK. True. ^

My wife calls a cup of tea 'a nice cup of tea'.
"Shall we have a nice cup of tea? She'll say.
Occasionally I'll suggest that we have a crap one for a change, but she doesn't really get it.

Louis and I just had eggs royale for breakfast: a poached egg with hollandaise sauce, on smoked salmon and buttery toasted English muffins.

Trying to find new ways to get turmeric into my system, I've tried it in porridge.

Enough oats to make one substantial bowl of porridge.
Level teaspoon powdered ginger
Level teaspoon powdered turmic
Decent grind of black pepper

Simmer with enough water to taste. I also have flame raisins.

Needs a bit of something sweet, I use date syrup or treacle. Just a dab.

Bloody nice it is.

Tin of pilchards mashed with great gloops of mayo, dijon mustard, salt, pepper and more pepper on toasted sour dough.
Well, not quite a whole tin as the hound insisted that dog tax was payable.

I made flatbreads a couple of days ago, and had a few going spare.

So I made Dishoom Bacon and Egg Naans, with Cream cheese, coriander, chili jam and the bacon and eggs for the Boys who are here for a few days.

The flatbreads are not Naans, but they make an acceptable substitute, and the result is very close to the restaurant product.

Boxing Day breakfast at my sister-who-art-in-Kingston. Sourdough bagels, made by me in the run up to Christmas then frozen, scrambled eggs, smoked salmon.

Scrambled egg and croissant, so very Kingston.

Yesterday I discovered that two packs of bacon in the fridge had an historical sell-by date, so I did bacon & egg instead of our normal porridge. Today we were back to porridge, and excellent it was.

There's another pack of historical bacon but yesterday's was obviously perfectly OK so I'm sure another day or two won't do any harm.

But how historical was it: painter or philosopher?

On Christmas day it was Dishoom bacon and egg naans.

I'd made the naans the night before, and I have a jar of the chilli jam I made a while back, and we had some most excellent Dukeshill bacon in the fridge.

The Boys had got a Chai set, with the chai mix and a couple of glasses, so that completed the experience!
