It's a North East England term (where I was born) for a simple meal. Originally for a "packed lunch" to take to your place of employment. It was normally packed in your "snap tin".

"What have you got for snap today?"

"Potted meat sandwiches".

Yeah I know, always a cup of tea and biscuit, that normally lasts me through to dinner/tea. Never been big on eating in the morning or afternoon. Just the way I am I suppose. Burt Blank and I would get along fine I think.

I love the consistency of your Earl and biscuit posts. It feels somehow comforting.

Very nice! And I’ve just reminded I didn’t have avocado for ages, need to recover

Thank you. The first try a few days ago was a flop as she did not have the patience for it to ripen. This one she waited for 3 days.

Avocado will do you good. Discovered an avocado stone carver online, beautiful!

Made daging masak bali.....aka Balinese beef strips. Would have to say for the simplicity of the recipe it really is a delicious dish with a seemingly undeserved complexity on the palette. It's going to be a regular in my rotation from now on.

Simple mid-week dish tonight. Chicken, pea pesto, tagliatelle, all made from scratch (apart from the chicken!).

Snap - looks good- I made some tagliatelle too. Did you use a pasta machine?

Parsley tagliatelle with garlic butter and chilli:

Working title Daisy Zucchini Pie
My breakfast and snap today.

Buckwheat flour,egg,milk,baking powder for the base

. It turned out soft, spongy, mild and yummy. Eye measured, quicky.
Covered with grated zucchini, two eggs, dry dill, mixed grated parmiggiano-like cheese.

I might switch the cheese with black olives.

Something sour would do well on the side. I wonder what. Had some yoghurt in the morning...

Prebaked the base...
Had no expectations ...but its good!
