If we’re talking about weekend breakfasts and I could choose only one then it would have to be my partner’s home made crumpets. It took him a few attempts to perfect them but he now has it exactly right. They’re a bit time consuming to make but I guarantee that after eating them you’d never let a shop bought crumpet pass your lip ever again!
Also at weekends only, I often make enchiladas, and sometimes we have flatbreads and dhal and If I really don’t care about the calories and am feeling really decadent – then I love a Guatemalan breakfast, as in the World Food Café 2 book, which consists of a version of refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, feta cheese and salsa all wrapped up in a tortilla. Mostly in the interests of not getting any fatter, I drop the guacamole and feta and swop the sour cream for natural yogurt to make a lower fat version.
These breakfasts are really brunch and will see us both through to our evening meal.
On boring old weekdays when there just isn’t time for anything else its porridge or toast!
