Easter recipe: Charlie Hibbert’s egg, leeks and shaved truffle
Ahead of a glorious Easter weekend, “Charlie Hibbert, head chef of Thyme at Southrop Manor Estate in Gloucestershire, has created this springtime dish, which makes an ideal brunch or lunch”.
Wild garlic, spinach & fennel soup
On these spring days, when there is a scent of summer in the air, but the wind carries a slight chill, there is little better than a warming bowl of seasonal soup.
Wild Garlic Butter
There are many different dishes wild garlic can be used for, but I think that making something simple like this butter gives you a useful tool for your fridge.
Brill & Wild Garlic Veloute
Brill is a wonderful fish, I love it roasted whole; it has a wonderful buttery texture and nothing is wasted. It is also lovely portioned and grilled like this. Any cod fish is a wonderful match to wild garlic.
Coppa, Asparagus & Soft-Boiled Eggs
This lovely little salad sitting atop a slice of fried bread makes for a lovely brunch dish, or a light lunch, perfect for easter and the asparagus season.
Thyme’s Hot Cross Buns
Traditionally enjoyed on Good Friday, our sweet and sticky hot cross bun recipe is the perfect Easter treat!
Dippy Eggs & Anchovy Toast
Soft boiled eggs are a breakfast staple, occasionally we like to jazz up the soldiers to go with them too.
