I love the annual ritual of walking over the fields to gather blackberries in the late summer and early autumn as the seasons turn.
This recipe makes a very sweet, thick, fruit packed jam which is a properly indulgent treat.
All in Breakfast
'Greensamole' and Poached Eggs on Toast
Made with seasonal British greens, broad beans and mint, my ‘Greensamole’ offers a lower food miles alternative to avocado. It’s just as tasty, is low fat, packed full of vitamins and is also great as a dip too.
Zingy Lemon Curd
I like my lemon curd rich and sweet with a bit of lemony zing.
It’s quicker to make than jam and can be used in puddings or just slathered on hot buttered toast for a sweet breakfast treat.
