Next week Great Britain gets a new monarch. You can celebrate Charles III whether you support him or not. The question is what do you make?
One of the most classic dishes comes from his mother 's Elizabeth II's coroation, coromation choicken. this is a relic from post war Britain.it';s chopped poached chicken cooled and then mixed with mayo , curry ,raisins and mango or apricot chuney.It suspiciously sounds like a Southern country clib lunceon dish to be served on lettuceleaves or white toast. The curry is a nod to the queen's father George VI who loved curry as did her great great grandmother Queen Victoria. I would revamp this by getting rid of the rasins, maybe adding apples and only adding a small pinch of curry.Yes,I'd serve it on toast, as you would with any chicken salad.
What can you make? Try beans on toast. I may butter the toast first and add a layer of Morningstar Farms bacon to it fo crunch and more flavor. Then there's the English fry up breakfast.(The coronation starts at 5 AM New York Eastern time next week!!!! )Many will be waking up to seeing a king get crowned. A fry up breakfast consists of fried eggs,bacon sausages,. fried tomatoes and beans. There's usually fried bread with it to mop up the egg. If it's a bit too much , then just have eggs and bacon on toast. You coul;d also just have an Englsih muffin with butter - or turn it intoa breakfast sandwich to celebrate. A breakfast scone would be good too along with a steaming strong cup of English breakfast tea.
How will you celebrate the coronation of Charles and his queen Camilla? That's up to what you want to eat. Have a hearty breakfast or a lunch of coronation chicken salad.Be the ruler of your kitchen.
