Ingredients: 25 g butter; 200 g chestnut mushrooms, chopped; 1 garlic clove, crushed; 1 tsp. dried mixed herbs; 75 g baby spinach; 50 g chorizo, finely chopped (skinned if from a ring); 1 1/2 tbsp. runny honey; 1/2 tsp. dried chilli flakes; 4 crumpets, toasted

Sweet honey perfectly offsets salty, spicy chorizo. This makes for a sophisticated (yet easy) brunch. Top with poached or scrambled eggs for a more substantial meal, if you like.
