Breakfast

I’m a creature of habit – my breakfast is always a bowl of porridge and an orange. I chop up the orange and chomp on the inside of it. It doesn’t look great on the plate after I’ve finished, but it’s quick and easy, and better than orange juice, which has so much sugar in it. I grab a flat white from Costa in Westminster tube station. They know me now, so when I walk in I don’t even have to order.

Lunch

I like Portcullis House’s restaurant, which does things like jerk chicken or cod with vermicelli and broccoli. I try not to eat at my desk; I don’t like the smell of food in the office.

Snacks

I have a weakness for the rock cakes in the members’ tea room, with a cup of tea around 3pm or 4pm. If you want an old-school foodery, you need to see it. It’s open as long as the house is sitting (often up to midnight) for comfort foods such as sausage sandwiches and carrot cake.

Dinner

My wife, Helle, and I are quite lazy, and when you get home at 8pm, you can’t be bothered to chop things, so I will get ready-chopped vegetables and chicken from Tesco for a stir-fry. I cooked more when the kids still lived with us. I like to follow a recipe exactly; if it says cut the onions into 1.7mm slices, I will do that.
