Comments: "The recipe here reflects my British roots, but not necessarily my family traditions," writes Mairi Morrison of London, England. "Although my mother is from Scotland and my father is from Northern Ireland, I grew up in Los Angeles, where our weeknight meals were typically American: spaghetti, tacos, and burgers. It wasn't till I moved to Europe which I became really interested in food. Here in London my social life is centered around the table. I really like this dish because it is typically British, and perfect for a rainy winter evening in London."
Make these ahead if desired (they will keep for a week in the fridge) or possibly make them on a whim, since the recipe is so easy. Lyle's Golden brown Syrup is a popular British sweetener with a flavor which's similar to mild honey.
