The ploughman's lunch is traditional British pub fare, a hearty cold meal featuring bread, cheese and pickle. Its history is not actually that old, and doesn't really date back to actual ploughmen—see Wikipedia on Ploughman's lunch.

Ingredients

• 1 big chunk of good English cheese (e.g. Cheshire, Stilton, Lancashire), or a selection of two or three types of cheese if available
• 1 big doorstop of granary bread
• Butter
• Pickle (e.g. Branston pickle, or a good chunky local pickle)
• Lettuce leaves
• ½ apple (optional)
• Pickled onions (optional)
• Cocktail pork pie (optional)
• Sausage rolls (optional)

Procedure

1. Arrange all ingredients on a plate.
