Brings us on to "signature dishes", us middle aged blokes always have a couple of stand-bys that the family like. I think mine are Chilli Meat Balls, Squid stir fry or a Frittata all served with green salads, lots of others but I think those are the main ones I am noted for

Mine are; Pot Noodle Con Pan, Pommes Frites a lá KFC, Cottage Pie with West Indian Sauce, Pan con Crema Ensalata Heinz and Lobby.

Jus or sauce?

Young lad near me was tucking into Saucisse et Frites yesterday but had too much ketchup a la tomate for my liking

[Youri McAnespie]

Sauce Chaud.

2. Fried bread. The increasingly forgotten component of the full English. Seems to have been replaced by the dire Americanism that is the hash brown. 

 

On the subject of fried bread, this morning we had no oil so I cooked my fried bread in butter (Lurpak spreadable) it tasted OK and was nice and crispy, what is the best way to a perfect fried slice?

Bacon fat

Book a bed in the CCU at The Royal Bolton and use beef dripping.

[Youri McAnespie]

If I, rarely, griddle bacon to make a bacon butty I do stick the bread in the render in the pan and toast it, let it soak the fat up...

Stick the rashers side on the pan walls to keep them warm whilst you do the bread.

Fresh cut bread or ciabatta, not sliced.

The sign of someone who's been 'dragged up' (had a deprived childhood, not a makeover by Rupaul) is anyone who uses the term 'red sauce' instead of 'ketchup'...

Ketchup on a Bacon Barm is acceptable, although brown is preferable.

'Chop' brown sauce was my favourite as a kid.

My mate has a crackin picture of his mam in the 80’s, stood over a chip pan, dressing gown, curlers in, fag in the mouth

I’d imagine these sort of people stopped many a game of pool for @MickyD

Airfryers, deep fat fryers, chip pans...

All just different ways of saying:

"I'm a scrubber-dubber"

"And a fat dobber."

I don't have an airfryer simply as we don't deep fry owt. I understand they are very good for chips though.

Indeed. A death sentence for many piss heads who saved themselves a pound at the chippy by putting a chip pan on the stove then going sitting down while it warmed up. 
I reckon about a dozen of the piss heads dead and nearly as many family members over a 30 year career.

You lose your sense of smell once asleep so miss the fact the house is full of tarry black smoke.

If they were any good surely they'd have been scaled up for use in chippies - oil is one of the biggest costs for a chippy.

People with deep fat fryers usually use them to lazily 'feed' their obese kids with frozen crap, and coat all the surfaces in their kitchen in a film of grease, and stink their house out.

We have an air fryer because we don't deep fry. They're quick and efficient and don't stink the house out.

See, I like the sound of these as I like decent chips but I simply will not entertain a deep fat fryer as they stink and are a twat to clean.

Hangover. Maccies all day long.

Other times I could inhale cheese pasties from Greggs all-day every day.

Yes McDonald’s or KFC after a session

as for the air fryer the resident jock recommended this and it’s the best investment I’ve made Chuck more or less anything in it

I genuinely thought it was going to end up in that cupboard with the donut make and George foreman never to see the light of day but it’s been brilliant

Everyday Chilli Sauce from the Sauce Shop is amazing on a bacon butty
