Traditional Welsh Breakfast

Traditional Welsh Breakfast recipe, eat well on universal credit

Sue has family in Wales and we were looking for another recipe project. So Welsh recipes it is….

Ingredients for the Laver Cakes:-

2 Tbsp of Laverbread (We bought this in a tin as it’s a long walk to Wales to harvest out own!)
3 Tbsp of Gluten Free Quinona Flakes
2 Tbsp of Buckwheat Flour
2 Tbsp of Cockles

Method:-

(1) Combine all the ingredients.
(2) Divide into two patties.
(3) Fry in a little Oil on a medium heat for 3 minutes on each side.
(4) Dress with a little Laver and a few Cockles to serve.

Apart from the Laver Cakes the other components were, A fried Egg, Pork and Caramelised Onion Sausages, Bacon, Baked Beans, Baby Tomatoes and fried foraged Pine Bolete Mushrooms.

The Laver Cakes are Sue’s modification using Quinona Flake to replace the Oats, so the Cakes are Gluten Free. If you can tolerate Oats, that would be more tradition. But they were really good!

As a bit of a joke I posted “ Your turn to make proper Bubble & Squeak Sue” on Facebook. Never challenge the Chef! Off she toddled to the freezer to rummage through the boxes of bits and bobs we keep from previous meals and came up with this All Day Breakfast gig.

Crispy grilled Bacon
Fried Egg
Baked Beans

Not surprisingly for us Chilli had found it’s way into some of the left over veg at some stage – which was actually a great, if unexpected, addition! Price wise this meal probably cost us £1.50 each in fresh ingredients. The nearest equivalent I can find is at Stop The World Cafe at Leigh-On-Sea in Essex - “The Belly Buster Breakfast” at £11.50.
