Nothing says the weekend quite like a delicious brunch, and instead of going out to your local cafe and potenially spending a fortune, why not try preparing something at home?
A dish doesn't need to be complicated in order to be tasty, and Mary Berry's crisp bacon rosti paired with fried eggs is an ideal example of this.
The iconic TV chef says that the recipe, which takes less than 30 minutes to prepare, makes a 'delicious, filling brunch'. It's bound to impress your family or friends, but it only requires a handful of ingredients - many of which you may already have at home.
Her recipe was shared on the BBC Two programme Mary Berry Everyday, and is now available on the BBC Food website.
Mary says this brunch dish works best when paired with ketchup or a spicy drizzle of hot sauce to make things more interesting. This recipe serves two, and before you start, you'll need a small frying pan - this will help to make your rostis more crispy - and a clean tea towel.
Ingredients
Method
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 20cm lidded frying pan, add the bacon and fry over a high heat until crisp. Remove the bacon and put it to one side, then add the onion to the pan and fry for one minute. Cover with the lid, lower the heat and cook for 15 minutes until soft.
Put the potatoes inside a clean tea towel and wring out as much water as possible by squeezing the towel. Put the potato in a bowl, add the onion and bacon, season with salt and pepper and combine.
Return the pan to the heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. When the oil is hot add the potato mixture, and use the back of a spoon to press the mixture into the pan so there is an even layer covering the whole surface.
Cook over a low heat for 5–10 minutes, then flip over. Cook the other side

If Nicole Kidman, a massive movie star who pivoted to TV and became known as the “Queen of Peak TV,” perhaps someone like Ewan McGregor is quickly becoming her counterpart. McGregor, like Kidman, enjoyed much success on screen as a leading man, but as the mid-sized drama seemingly vanished in cinemas and shifted towards television, actors like the two of them, with an inclination for human stories, have pivoted right alongside the trend.

The Jesus & Mary Chain have shared details of a memoir, set for release later this year.Titled Never Understood, The Story Of The Jesus & Mary Chain, the book was written by the band’s founding members, William and Jim Reid, with the help of critic and ghostwriter Ben Thompson.Set for release via White Rabbit, the book will arrive on August 15 in the UK, and September 3 in the US (via Hachette Books).In the memoir, both William and Jim will delve into the origins of the band, their rise to fame and the personal battles they faced along the way.“For five years after they’d swapped sought-after apprenticeships for life on the dole, brothers William and Jim Reid sat up till the early hours in the front room of their parents’ East Kilbride council house, plotting their path to world domination over endless cups of tea, with the music turned down low so as not to wake their sleeping sister,” reads a description.“They knew they couldn’t play in the same band because they’d argue too much, so they’d describe their dream ensembles to each other until finally they realised that these two perfect bands were actually the same band, and the name of that band was The Jesus & Mary Chain.”Over 40 years since they first emerged, the book will see the musicians tell the story of the band for one of the very first times, and open up about their first-hand perspective of being in the group. This includes their brotherly strife, struggles with drug and alcohol addiction and extreme shyness, but is said to come together as somewhat of “a love letter to the Scottish working-class family.”“It’s got plenty of warts, we can assure you of that,” Jim Reid said of the book.

Mary Poppins has had its age rating increased in the UK due to the use of “discriminatory language”.The Disney film, which stars Julie Andrews as the titular nanny, was originally released back in 1964.However, last week (February 23) the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) upped its original rating to PG from U due to two uses of a racially insensitive term.A spokesperson for the organisation told Variety that Mary Poppins “includes two uses of the discriminatory term ‘hottentots’”.“While Mary Poppins has a historical context, the use of discriminatory language is not condemned, and ultimately exceeds our guidelines for acceptable language at U.
“Mary Poppins” movie due to “discriminatory language.”The Disney movie, which came out in 1964, stars Julie Andrews as magical governess Mary Poppins and Dick Van Dyke as her chimney-sweep sidekick, Bert.It snared 13 Oscar nominations — including one for Best Picture — and won five Academy Awards, including one for Andrews as Best Actress. It is being re-released in some movie theaters in the UK next month to celebrate its 60th anniversary.The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) changed the “Mary Poppins” rating from U — meaning that it contained “no material likely to offend or harm” and is suitable for audiences four years and older — to PG, which delineates “discriminatory language,” and that some scenes may be unsuitable for young children, though unaccompanied children of any age may watch, according to The Independent.The offending language in question is the use of the word “hottentots,” which is used in the movie by Admiral Boom (Reginald Owen), including one instance in which he refers to chimney sweeps (like Bert) whose faces are covered in soot.A BBFC spokesperson told Variety that the film “includes two uses of the discriminatory term ‘hottentots.’ While ‘Mary Poppins’ has historical context, the use of discriminatory language is not condemned, and ultimately exceeds our guidelines for acceptable language at U.“We therefore classified the film PG for discriminatory language.”The word is a racially insensitive term for the Khoekhoe, an indigenous group of nomadic herders in South Africa.The slur was adopted by Dutch settlers in South Africa, thought to imitate their language, but was later used to refer to all black people, according to The Independent.
Ellise Shafer The age rating for the 1964 “Mary Poppins” has been increased in the U.K. due to “discriminatory language.” On Friday, the British Board of Film Classification upped the Disney movie’s cinema rating from U, meaning it contained “no material likely to offend or harm,” to PG for “discriminatory language.” Though the BBFC did not disclose the language which caused the reevaluation, the Daily Mail reported that it is due to the use of a racially insensitive term for the Khoekhoe, an indigenous group in South Africa.
Mary Poppins has been deemed potentially unsuitable for children.
Gwen Stefani has spoken about the No Doubt single that makes the singer “almost throw up in [her] mouth”.During the latest episode of the Audacy Check-In podcast (released February 16), Stefani explained that she “can’t listen to a lot of the songs” by her band “because they speak so clearly” to her now.“And it’s like you have regret and mistakes you’ve made. Most of the songs are about that,” she continued (via Billboard).“If I do [2000 single] ‘Ex-Girlfriend’ even when I say it, I almost throw up in my mouth because… it’s just like, ‘Oh my God’. It just brings you right back.”The song in question appears on No Doubt’s fourth album ‘Return Of Saturn’.
We all love a decent slice of homemade carrot cake and often, we should never stray far from a perfect, classic recipe - however, this one is simply magnificent with a cuppa and must be tried.The clever addition of a sweet, ripe banana mashed into your batter transforms the finished sponge into moist and melt-in-the-mouth bites which combine beautifully with the crunch of classic chopped walnuts and gooey, sticky sultanas.The star of the show is that buttercream though - by adding fresh lemon juice you'll create a citrus zest that elevates your cake to the next level. Optional, but a highly recommended add, it's also a delight to play about with other citrus flavours like lime, clementine, or our favourite at this time of the year - seasonal blood oranges.
