Odd, isn't it, how often comfort food is associated with the sort of thing that is despised as junk food, empty calories, something to feel ashamed of.
A disturbed night and some emotional upheavals left me feeling in need of some easy consolation. Luckily in the house, a ready made soya burger and some potatoes.
It looks far worse than it is. The soya burger, from the Sojasun range, contains only 132 calories and 17g protein, the chips were oven cooked and had only a couple of teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil to sear their golden sides. The rather dubious sauce (which comes with the burgers) could easily have been left out and the tomato and gherkin garnish completely unobjectionable, healthy even.
I cooked some sourdough buns to go with the burger but they weren't ready in time, so they are saved for tea.
Better cooking tomorrow I hope.
