I have gone on record to acknowledge my appreciation for Neil's breakfast making skills and I invariably end up at his and Maya's place for at least one whenever I'm in the UK. And of course, that doesn't prevent me from also benefitting from cooked breakfast activities at other family member's houses too.
However, I have to say that I am quite proud of the breakfast that I just made for myself. Not only did I have to source all the ingredients myself from the local supermarket in a super high pressure forward-thinking exercise when I went shopping yesterday, but I also had to figure out what I was going to cook it with. Not such an easy task in a kitchen that is equipped with Japanese equipment and utensils - it has a fancy rice cooker but no frying pan, for example - and in a relatively tight work area. I figured out how to do it and the Flickr site has some in-progress shots for your viewing pleasure.
Still, the results speak for themselves (or rather I do, on this blog, as I have just eaten them) and I now feel confident enough to put this on the list of things I'll make for Michelle and Meleena when they come over here in July.
By the way, I will be arriving in the UK on June 7th and am now taking reservations for my attendance at breakfast on Sunday the 8th...
