I made the full recipe using a fresh roma tomato picked off the vine and sweet basil from the herbe garden in place of the cilantro/coriander and I used a vintage sharp cheddar and served with slices of toasted wholemeal/wholegrain bread and the DM, DS and myself had a wonderful feast for breakfast.
