ENJOY THE BANK HOLIDAYS

We may all be stuck inside, but that’s no reason not to celebrate special occasions. Birthdays, anniversaries and would-be weddings all deserve attention, and this May is also the 75th anniversary of VE Day. Here, we’ve updated a few timeless dishes to mark the event, so even if we can’t party in the streets, we can still celebrate at home.

PEA & HAM PICNIC EGGS

Like a scotch egg but oh-so-much-easier, we used to eat these straight from the pack before the picnic blanket was even down. I’ve updated them here with a pea & ham twist – a traditional soup typically made with split or fresh peas, and the cooking liquor leftover from boiling a ham. We’ve captured those flavours in bite-sized morsels with fresh green peas and salty ham hock. Anna Glover
