In his book titled “Eating Royally: Recipes and Remembrances from a Palace Kitchen”, the chef shared the late Queen\u2019s dining preferences as well as her favourite meals from when she was alive.<\/p>\n
According to the chef, the late Queen ate four meals a day, although they were four small portions.<\/p>\n
In a series of YouTube Q&A videos, Mr McGrady claimed the late monarch would consume breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner.<\/p>\n
For breakfast, things were kept pretty simple according to royal biographer, Katie Nicholl. \u201cHRH typically starts with a simple cup of tea and biscuits, followed by a bowl of cereal,\u201d Katie previously explained.<\/p>\n

Afternoon tea, which is composed of sandwiches and scones, was one of Her Late Majesty\u2019s favourite meals.<\/p>\n The royal chef explained the late monarch would have afternoon tea in the late afternoon and would enjoy scones with jam and clotted cream.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cShe\u2019d always have afternoon tea wherever she was in the world. We\u2019d flown out to Australia and were on the Royal Yacht. It was five o\u2019clock in the morning but for the Queen, it was five in the afternoon so my first job was making scones.\u201d<\/p>\n Dinner would vary for the late Queen, but the chef previously said meals would include a combination of meat or fish and vegetables.<\/p>\n According to Mr McGrady, she loved a Gaelic steak as well as a fillet steak with a mushroom and whisky sauce.<\/p>\n At the time when Mr McGrady was working for the late Queen, there was a team of 20 chefs in the kitchen.<\/p>\n The head chef would provide Her Late Majesty with a menu twice a week where she would choose her meals depending on what she fancied that week.<\/p>\n
