Besides the indigestion, does the log burner not burn your mouth?Just a glass of port, dark chocolate and a roaring log burner.
I worked in Haslingden for a couple of years, it was there that I was introduced to "pie in a barm"
Ah, now what you have there is a Wigan Kebab.
yeah, but [i]mint sauce[/i]??? 😯
I'd much rather have a sausage butty, followed by some parkin and perhaps some bonfire toffee while burning an effigy of a failed terrorist
I was at a do last night and was treated to deep fried cheese and onion sarnies - bloody lovey they where too!
Cheese and honey is a classic combination! Not sure about the instant coffee though...
Pea and ham soup today, with bread and butter.
Cougar - ModeratorAh, now what you have there is a Wigan Kebab.
Nah, that's a 'slappy'.
A Wigan kebab is 3or4 pies on a stick, like a kebab...
I keep saying - it's me mom's own 1970's Rover Strike Special Spuds:
Hot crispy-jacketed spuds - halved lengthways, emptied, contents mashed together well with salted butter and corned beef until you have dark pink potato.
Return the meaty mash to skins, top with lots of sliced or grated cheddar cheese, return to oven or medium grill until all is bubbly golden or you can't wait any longer.
Die and go to comfort food heaven. Add sausage on side and be reincarnated and go again. Add frozen peas if still feeling guilty.
I can't believe we're 2 pages in and no mention of mash- the ultimate comfort food, creamy mash with butter, or with sausage and onion gravy ya pie and soup eating bastids

I posted the Ultimate Mash just above 😉
Another easy one:
Cut butternut squash lengthways in half
De-seed, sprinkle on some cumin seeds, apply oil or butter and crushed garlic
Roast for about 1hr
Scoop out the flesh, mix it with nuts of choice, more spices of choice, pancetta cubes
Put mix back in scooped out skins, generously cover with cheese then back in oven for 20 mins
Serve with veg, carbs and red wine
Easy
Pie and mash, chunky soup and crusty bread, roast dinners or bangers and mash. Washed down with Guiness of course.

Corned beef hash! Although putting it back in the skin is inspired.
Just to rewind a page, and the discussion of the ultimate Tomato soup accompaniment, I am sure I learned years ago from someone of this parish that the answer to that particular question was Pickled Onion Monster Munch "croutons"
Corned beef hash!
No. In so many ways, just no!
In the same way that pepperoni pizza is not a bacon and tomato sarnie, although both constructed from thin smoky pork, bread and tomatoes.
Rubbish. Potato and corned beef mashed together = corned beef hash.
Bless though.
Tomorrow night's menu for the Privileged Guests:

Every day's a school day. Pie in soup, waffle butties and rover strike special spuds are most definitely on the agenda. And some other inspired stuff! Monster munch croutons? Truly inspired!!!
Tonight here we're keeping it simple, but comfort-food-tastic! Proper bratwurst, smothered in fried onions, on finger rolls, plenty of crap cheese singles and ketchup. Mmmmmmmmmmm 🙂
