Crust: 6 Tbsp butter 1 ½ cups flour ¼ cup milk ½ tsp dried sage, crushed

Filling: 3 cups mushrooms, chopped 4 garlic cloves, chopped ½ tsp salt ½ tsp black pepper ½ tsp dried fennel leaves 4 eggs 1 ½ cups milk 2 Tbsp flour 1 cup cheese, shredded or cut into chunks butter

Preheat the oven to 375° F.

Mix the flour and sage. Cut the butter into the flour until it is crumbly. Stir in enough milk to make a dough that holds together but is not too wet. You can press the dough into a pie tin, or refrigerate it, then roll it out to make the crust.

Melt some butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the onions and garlic. Saute for a few minutes until the garlic has started to brown. Pour this mixture into the pie crust.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, seasonings, and cheese, until the eggs are thoroughly mixed. Pour into the pie crust.

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the top is browned and the filling is solid in the center.

1 onion 1-2 Tbsp butter 2 ½ cups carrots, chopped into 1” pieces 4 eggs ½ cup half and half ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper 1/8 tsp crushed mint leaves

Thinly slice the onion. Place in a pan over med-low heat with butter and cover, stirring occasionally. When the onions are soft, remove cover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion pieces are browned.

At the same time, boil the carrot pieces in salted water, until the fat pieces of carrot are easy to stab with a fork.

Drain the carrots and puree with the half and half, making it as smooth as you can get it.

Preheat oven to 325° F.

Butter a pie tin and spread the onion evenly over the bottom.

Beat together the eggs, carrot puree, salt, pepper, and mint. Pour evenly over the onions.

Place the pie tin in a larger pan with water in it. Bake until it is a set custard, and a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes.

This is not a traditional Welsh laverbread recipe, but it is similar.

1 cup prepared laver, or nori sheets torn up and soaked in water until soft (drain off excess water) ¼ cup rolled oats ¼ cup corn meal or oat flour vegetable oil salt pepper malt vinegar

Stir together the laver/nori, oats, and corn meal. It should make a dough that holds together, and is not runny or extremely sticky.

Warm the oil in a pan for frying. Form the dough into thin patties about 2” across. Fry them for a few minutes on each side, until golden and crisp. Place on a wire rack over paper towels to drain off excess oil.

Serve sprinkled with salt, pepper, and vinegar.

Makes about 9 patties.

Where I live, it's a lot easier to find nori, seaweed that has been toasted and rolled flat in a sheet. It is the same species of the seaweed used in Wales, but it's been prepared differently. As stated in the recipe, you can just soak it in water to soften (only takes a minute or so) for good results.
