Tips

You can substitute with other vegetables you have such as broccoli or cauliflower

I used cheese instead of oil, which also enhances the flavour

You might use the method of coating with breadcrumbs and frying, but in this recipe, I chose to bake them to reduce the grease of the patties

Bubble and squeak is a dish made using leftover potatoes and vegetables to create a recipe like rice cake or pancake. There is no fixed recipe dictating which vegetables must be used, so you can adjust the ingredients according to what you have. The spices can also be varied to suit your taste. For example, adding curry powder can make it pair well with different curries.

You can replace the salad greens and tomatoes with mashed avocado, served with bubble & squeak and eggs hollandaise

The key step in making Hollandaise sauce is not to use too high heat, as it can cause the eggs to cook too quickly and the sauce to become lumpy
