Seasonal Cooking

Smoked Haddock and Poached Egg with Asparagus, Sugar Snap Peas, and a Beurre Blanc

May 17, 2026 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

Smoked Haddock and poached Egg with Asparagus, Sugar Snap Peas, and a Beurre Blanc. There is a certain class of genteel English hotel where they serve an assortment of dishes alongside the usual offering of a full English and a Continental offer. Maybe a bowl of kedgeree, a Manx kipper or a perfect poached egg and smoked haddock. This nutritious yet tasty dish can easily be elevated to a stunning lunch or supper dish. Perfect for spring with some sautéed seasonal vegetables and a simple beurre blanc or butter sauce.

My Posh Bangers ‘n’ Mash

February 2, 2026 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

My Posh Bangers ‘n’ Mash. It’s thought that the name ‘Bangers’ dates back to food shortages during WW I. Sausages were packed with fillers such as breadcrumbs or rusk and lots of water, and they had the tendency to burst with a loud pop when dropped in hot oil. Today, you can buy quality sausages…
