What are you having for breakfast?

Reminded of Danny Baker's famous "sausage sandwich game", i still go for HP sauce. It brings out the flavour.
 
Home-grown caramelised tomatoes on toast.

Poached smoked haddock and poached eggs with a little bit of dill that I had left over from last nights dinner.

King Oyster mushrooms on toast. Home grown too!

My daughter bought me a couple of mushroom growing kits and this morning I harvested some King Oysters. Fried in butter and olive oil with garlic, nutmeg and chopped parsley. Bloody lovely - I can honestly say these are the best mushrooms I have tasted - flavour and texture included.

I’ve got these field cap ones just starting to come up so they are next on my list. :mrgreen:

Toasted currant teacakes with lots of proper butter.

It made me think again about terminology.

In these parts, a "teacake" is plain. Or if you want to be absolutely sure, you ask for a "plain teacake". If you want a fruited one you need to ask for a "currant teacake".

My friend from Hull calls a plain teacake a "bun". Others call them baps or barms. Snooty southerners seem to call it a roll.
