Stokesy and I had a hankering for a little late-night sustenance so decided to try a traditional Welsh Rarebit, it is essentially cheese on toast for people with too much time of their hands.
Here's what you need:
- 4 slices bread
- big knob of butter
- 1 leek, finely sliced
- 2 handfuls of grated cheddar - we used the IOM Creamery black peppercorn one
- 2 tsp worcester sauce
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp mustard
Toast your bread while you make the topping. Sweat the leeks in the butter til soft. In a bowl combine the rest of the ingredients, then add the leeks, it should be a mushy paste (ours looked rather unappetising at this point). Then just spread the mix over your toast and lash it under the grill til it's lovely golden brown.
I couldn't decide which sauce to have so tried tommy sauce, brown sauce and Reggae Reggae with it. The Reggae was top of the list for me. Hey check out my super-glam slippers, Nigella you have no competition from me.
