You have solved a riddle. Our Chinese cooks always produced scrambled egg that looks like a sample of Googled 'buttered egg'. I had been satisfied to think these were simply done partway as an omelette and then whisked about with a chop stick or two. I now feel very privileged to understand that they were all trained by Margaret Rose, lately HRH the Princess.

The conundrum precipitated by this discovery is the ubiquity of Chinese cooks that 1) produced scrambled eggs as above and, 2) could not make decent bread.

Did HRH discard her Chinese cheferie on discovering that they all did good eggs but hard bread or did they resign because she wouldn't play pretend cricket with the luncheon rolls?
