On Friday we ventured to Anglesey, in a virtual fashion, for another in Sue’s series of Welsh recipes.

Ingredients:-

4 Hard Boiled Eggs, shelled and cut in half
1 Leek, finely diced
4 Medium Potatoes, boiled and mashed
4 Tbsp of Margarine (We used dairy free to avoid Lactose issues)
2 Tbsp of Milk (Again Lactose free for us)
Salt & Pepper to season
A Pinch of grated Nutmeg
150g of Grated Mature Cheddar Cheese (Lactose free for us)
3 Tbsp of Cornflour
A additional 600ml of Milk (Lactose free for us)
50g of Breadcrumbs (Gluten free for us)
2 Tsp of Laverbread


Method:-



(1) Fry the Leek in Margarine over a medium heat until softened.
(2) Boil and mash the Potatoes adding 1 Tbsp of Margarine, 2 Tbsp of Milk and seasoning with Salt & Pepper.
(3) Add the Leeks to the mashed Potato and mix well.
(4) Spoon the Potato mixture into a baking tray.
(5) Arrange the Eggs over the top.
(6) Drizzle the Laverbread over the Eggs.
(7) In a pan melt 2Tbsp of Margarine over a low heat and stir in the Cornflour to make a Rue.
(8) Gently start adding the Milk whisking continuously until all the Milk is combined.
(9) Allow to simmer for 2 minutes.
(10) Add half of the Cheese and a Pinch of Nutmeg, seasoning with Salt & Pepper.
(11) Cook for a further minute over a low heat stirring gently.
(12) Pour the Sauce over  the Mashed Potatoes and Eggs.
(13) Place in a preheated oven at 180c for 10 minutes.
(14) Combine the remaining Cheese and Breadcrumbs and sprinkle over the sauce.
(15) Return to the oven for a further 10 minutes or until the dish is bubbling and golden brown.

This was supposed to be a side dish… Suffice to say we’ll be eating the remainder reheated this evening.

Swansea Breakfast recipe, eat well on universal credit

The recipe called this a “Traditional” Swansea Breakfast which seems to be a bit contentious. Traditional or not to was packed with flavour.

Pickled Cockles are interesting price wise. 89p in one shop and £2.00 in another shop within sight? Clearly I bought the more expensive ones although they were exactly the same brand - If you believe this you probably need an appointment with somebody about your mental function. Best of luck getting any sort of NHS appointment however!!!!!

Ingredients:-

1 Large Onion, finely chopped
1 Tbsp of Oil to fry
4 Rashers of Bacon, chopped
100g of Cooked Cockles
120g of Laverbread
The Juice of a Lemon
Black Pepper to taste

Method:-

(1) Heat the Oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the Onions until softened.
(2) Add the Bacon and cook until crisp.
(3) Add the Cockles and mix in the Laverbread.
(4) Season with freshly ground Black Pepper and the Lemon Juice.

We used this a the centrepiece for a Breakfast with Sausages, Fried Egg, Fried home made Cheese & Chive Bread and Hash Browns. But it beat us. All that was required was the Fried Bread. This is a recipe we’ll certainly be doing time after time!
