The most recent addition to my extensive collection of cookery books is ” The Saffron Tales” by Yasmin Khan. Kuku is an Iranian Frittata and there are at least three different recipes for kuku in this book.
This recipe for crashed eggs originates from Madrid where they would usually be served at lunch or dinner. I prefer them for a weekend breakfast or brunch.
Today i became a tenant of an allotment after just 11 months on the waiting list and im really looking forward to growing some of my own greens like purple sprouting broccoli, kale and spinach. This recipe for breakfast or a light supper from Diana Henry will put them to good use.
This is a recipe for cheese on toast, Anglo- Indian style, courtesy of Dishoom. Good comfort food for brunch as the weather gets chillier. Of course you can use whatever bread you like, i recently made it with a sweet bread made by our local bakery to celebrate Mexican Day of the Dead.
When i was a student almost 40 years ago there were very few vegetarian cookbooks around. In the UK the standard was Rose Elliots ” Not just a Load of Old Lentils” published in 1972- I still have my battered and coverless copy. This was a dish for highdays and holidays, including Christmas Dinner.
A recipe for eggs from Spain, this time from Penelope Casas ” The Food and Wines of Spain” (1982). Great for breakfast or brunch, with or without the toast.
