Breakfast for the day after


Imagine this: You cycle to the office (45 mins) you eat some rice at your desk and work non-stop for 8 hours, you cycle back for other 40 mins and you grab the nastiest falafel on the way, you get into the gig completely sold out with the most large and enthusiastic crowd, you cycle back home and it starts raining… Your ballerina pumps are like two sponges, you hair is dripping water everywhere, but you just want to go to bed.
What will save you on the day after when you have ten meetings and a zillion emails to answer to?
Of course is the breakfast that quite wisely you planned ahead ☺

I love my breakfast and if I am tired or hungover (the latter happenining less and less as I age!) this is the one meal I take very seriously.

Brown rice breakfast:
1 cup brown rice
1 sachet agar-agar
1 cup soymilk
2 tablespoon dried currant
2 tablespoon barley malt
Cinnamon and cardamom to taste

Boil the brown rice in 3 cups of water till it’s very very soft
Soak the currant in lukewarm water for 10 minutes than drain
Place soymilk and agar-agar in a bowl add rice, currants, malt, cinnamon and cardamom, mix
Bake in a preheated oven (180C°) for 45 minutes.
Let it cool for half an hour before serving.
