Posh Porridge news...

A wee plug for Posh Porridge....we have finally joined Facebook, I thought it would be a good way to keep Christchurch porridge lovers up to date with weekly flavours and my comings and occasional goings at the Christchurch Farmer's Market.  Once we have 100 likes one lucky person will receive free Posh Porridge for the rest of this winter!

It is very wet today in Christchurch, so here's hoping the weather improves tomorrow, in the meantime I had best start prepping, this week's special is sticky date and apple compote with walnut crumble, how's that for comfort food...

super posh porridge

When your enterprise is called 'Posh Porridge' it does seem the proper thing to acknowledge the royal nuptials on one's porridge menu. Therefore 'Royal' Posh Porridge was on offer at the market today. Hot, slow-cooked oats topped with Eton Mess of sorts - crumbled meringue, a mixed berry compote, whipped cream and a drizzle of creme anglaise, topped with a gold leaf-speckled meringue and finished off with a homemade souvenir spoon...hmmm gilding the lily for breakfast perhaps? At any rate the 'Royal' was today's top seller so alas I was flat out and had no chance to take a glamour shot of the final product. However, in my humble opinion the whole definitely equated to more than the sum of its parts above!
