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!

(2) Place the Basa fillets on Foil then but dots of Margarine or Butter on the Fish, followed by the sliced Ginger.
(3) Spoon over the Honey mix.
(4) Wrap the Foil around the Fish so none of the liquid can escape.
(5) Place on an oven tray and put in a pre-heated oven at 180c for 20 to 25 minutes.
