He said the plant is "one of the most poisonous plants in the northern hemisphere".
"Whilst they are a beautiful plant, these roots are highly toxic.
"It's the first time I've seen the roots exposed like this and there's lots of them. They are often called dead man's fingers and for good reason.
"One of the cliffs has eroded where a large patch was growing. Very unusual to see them growing on a cliff like that; usually they grow in or around water and riverbanks," he said.

Soy Sauce Noodles With Cabbage and Fried Eggs Time: 30 minutes Soy sauce noodles, a traditional Cantonese dish frequently eaten for breakfast or lunch at dim sum, are hearty enough to be served for dinner as well. Contrary to the traditional dish, which includes bean sprouts and frequently garlic chives, this recipe calls for cabbage because it has a nice textural crunch and plenty of scallions since they pack a strong flavor. Regular and dark soy sauce, or lăochu in Cantonese, are simply mixed together to make the soy sauce seasoning. It imparts the noodles' very rich color.

INGREDIENTS Yield: 4 servings FOR THE NOODLES Kosher salt 7 ounces dried (or 16 ounces fresh) thin egg noodles Neutral oil, such as vegetable or grapeseed 4 large eggs ½ small green cabbage (1½ pounds), core removed then thinly sliced 1 ...
