it's stupid easy, and I love to eat it in cold winter evenings.
I boil some milk, toss in a handful of arborio rice, butter, salt and nutmeg, and cook until the rice is nice and soft. it's decadent and creamy, and I like to call it "milk risotto".
what's your favourite comfort food?
Sautee 120g leek rounds in 1 tbsp olive oil. Add 20g mushrooms when they start to sweat. As soon as they start to colour, add 200ml full fat milk, half a veggie stock cube, three bay leaves, and 1 tbsp fresh thyme. Turn off heat and leave to infuse the herby flavours.
Whisk two eggs and three egg whites in a bowl. Add the liquid from the leek mixture. Add 200g cubed bread (it can be stale--I used olive sourdough) and let it soak the liquid in for 10 minutes.
Mix through the leek mixture, 30g gruyere or other cheese, and lots of pepper. Tip into a lightly greased pan and bake at 160C until it puffs up and browns on top.
Serves four!
"Puddings" only gets you things like sponge pudding. Not things like Eton Mess or Flummery.
Also, I really hope they have sorrel in Waitrose.
We were in the US in 2014, loved chex mix so much, and cannot get it here.
I’d love to send you our favourites, or any requests!
