BRITISH BREAKFAST IN BED - BOILED EGGS AND MARMITE SOLDIERS

Steps:

• Bring a small pan of water to the boil. Carefully lower in the eggs and simmer for 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the eggs in the water for another 15 seconds before removing with a slotted spoon.
• Meanwhile, toast the bread, butter generously and spread thinly with marmite and slice into fat fingers.
• Place your eggs in an egg cup and provide a teaspoon and a knife.
• Cut the tops off the eggs and eat with the buttery marmite toast soldiers and a little salt.
• Cook's note: if you use eggs at room temperature rather than straight from the fridge, they are less likely to crack in the boiling water.

SOFT-BOILED EGGS WITH ASPARAGUS SOLDIERS

Steps:

• Cut the woody ends off the asparagus, and cook in a shallow saucepan of boiling water until tender but still has some bite - about 5 minutes. Then drain them and keep them warm while you cook the eggs.
• In a saucepan, bring some water to the boil into which you have dropped a matchstick; according to my Aunt Frieda this stops the white from billowing out into the pan should the egg crack while cooking. Am I going to promise this works? Well, all families have their folklore.
• Lower the eggs into the water and cook them at a steady boil for about 4 minutes. Take them out of the water and immediately slice the top of each one; the yolk should still be runny enough to dip the asparagus spears in.
• Make sure that there's salt on the table for sprinkling into the almost aggressive blandness of the egg and spear, as you eat, with the warm asparagus.
