Servings

A Ploughman’s lunch is a true celebration of simple British fare - rustic, hearty, and full of flavour. This classic spread brings together thick slices of ham and mature Cheddar, with bread and crisp, fresh accompaniments, all perfectly paired with a generous serving of rich, tangy Tiptree Ploughman’s Plum Chutney. Made with plums, apples, sultanas and warming spices, the chutney adds a deep, savoury sweetness that complements the cheese and meat. This traditional plate is perfect for a relaxed lunch, a picnic in the sunshine, or a laid-back pub-style meal at home.

Directions

Lightly butter the slices of wholemeal bread and arrange them on a large plate or board.
Place the slices of ham on the plate alongside wedges of pork pie. Add the extra mature Cheddar and Stilton, spacing them around the plate.
Add the apple, tomatoes, celery, cornichons and cucumber to the plate.
Scatter the pickled onions around the plate and add the Tiptree Ploughman’s Plum Chutney in a small dish or directly onto the plate.
Serve immediately with the buttered wholemeal bread, allowing everyone to build their perfect bite of cheese, ham, pickles and chutney.
