Bubbling and Squeaking
Why is it so easy for Christmas to disappear and be forgotten about? Life has slipped back to normal as it always does, and I'm beginning to notice the days drawing out a little longer. It is a good time to look forward, but I do miss the leftovers!
After a festive evening meal, it's always great to tuck into cold meat and bubble and squeak the next lunchtime. All those lovely vegetables (yes, I even make extra for the bubble and squeak!) get chopped up and fried gently, mixing them together. Chuck in a good chunk of stuffing, diced - my pork, black pudding and apple stuffing was perfect! I used pork, black pudding and apple sausages that I found reduced the day before Christmas eve, with the skins taken off and mixed with herbs and breadcrumbs - yum! Oh, and this year my cranberry sauce was a bit runny, so a good dollop of that in the B&S worked too - anything goes!
So why do we not do this every time we have eaten a roast dinner? Time to change - bubble and squeak needs a regular slot on the menu, and a few tweaks along the way... Watch this space!
