What is this British dish?

Laverbread is a traditional Welsh dish made from edible seaweed, specifically the laver species (Porphyra umbilicalis). It is a dark green to purple seaweed that grows along the rocky coastline of Wales. To prepare laverbread, the seaweed is washed thoroughly to remove sand and debris, then simmered or boiled until it becomes soft and gelatinous. It is often mashed or pureed to create a smooth paste-like consistency. Laverbread is typically served fried as patties or mixed with oatmeal and formed into cakes, then fried until golden and crispy. It is a nutritious dish, rich in vitamins, minerals, and iodine, and is considered a delicacy in Welsh cuisine, often enjoyed with bacon, eggs, or as part of a traditional Welsh breakfast.
