I am a
habitual snacker. I can’t help it. I must have descended from antelope as I could
happily graze all day. Here are a few of my, slightly more indulgent, comfort
foods.
Far-far
snacks. I used to love these as a child. Growing up in a rural village I’m not
sure where my parents managed to source them in the days before internet
shopping, but they did! They’re crispy in that way only
freshly fried empty calories can be. They barely have any flavour, but it doesn’t
stop them being magically moreish.
Fried
plantain and eggs. I had a Colombian housemate at university who introduced me
to this meal, and I’m so pleased she did. I cook my plantain and eggs in butter
so everything becomes caramelised but still strangely
savoury, as a tiny bit of my brain thinks I’m eating bananas and egg.
Churros.
I’m lucky in that my better half has perfected these and will quite happily whip
up a batch sometimes for a super indulgent weekend breakfast. The secret is the
chocolate sauce – a cruddy watery sauce will ruin the churros, use a high cocoa
chocolate and blend with cream, mmm.
