I wish she'd stop name dropping Anthony Bourdain particularly when posting a photo of the most disgusting slop ever, crap poached eggs with hard yolks bunged on top of a load of other hideous looking thrown together ingredients then a packet of cheap crappy crinkle cut crisps sprinkled on top.
She is an insult to all things *culinary* and to insinuate that her food could in any way help when people are suffering from depression is beyond the pale.

Those eggs look like they're from a poaching pan. Unnecessary and nowhere near as good a proper poached eggs.

Waitrose sells a version - I saw it on their website. I haven’t tried it though. The one I tried was at a weekly food fair on the South Bank. The company (whose name I have forgotten) make chutneys, jams and relishes. It was very delicious.

Just been and stuck a jar in my trolley. Have a shop coming in a few weeks. Like the sound of this. 👍

Just because you can put random ingredients together doesn't make it a recipe. I really get the impression she just doesn't understand this sometimes.
I've bored you all with my story about when my daughter made me breakfast in bed when she was about 7 - it consisted of a burnt fried egg, marmalade and raisins sprinkled on top - but it really didn't look dissimilar to that picture. About as bizarre.

It was the crisps sprinkled on top that tickled me, were they to add texture? 😂

I think she may have thought they were quirky. I noticed one of the comments was a barf one.

I think she is bored now. No book signings coming up, no book tours for a time to come, so she does silly Guardian interview, makes a muck slop dish who her sycophants fawn over, who will then buy her book. My bet is on that she does a crowdfund to get this book out to either foodbanks or mental health outfits.

Expenses? Jack's poor my dear, you'll get given a raft and have to make your way under manual power, like Greta Thunberg.

Oh! Well I stand corrected.... I had no idea that something like that even existed 🤔 what's wrong with water in a pan? She is such a lazy, tit cook 😂

what, something like:
• champ flatbreads,
• STEWssaka?
• balaclavabaklava (see what I did there?)
• adding fried halloumi to an Ulster Fry (actually I could get on board with that one 😋)

I can imagine the stewssaka 🤢
And balaclavabaklava almost made me laugh up a lung!

Do you think they’re the Real McCoy’s (~fancy~) or some supermarket brand crinkle cut crisps?
Which flavour do we think she plumped for? Cheese and onion? Thai sweet chicken? Chip shop curry sauce? 🤔

When I read jalapeno crisps in the description, I thought it meant sliced jalapenos that had been dehydrated or fried to be cripsy. I've had to look at this picture far too long to realise that I think she's just referring to crumbled up potato crisps with I assume jalapeno flavour? For the record, your honour, I object! I object!
