January 20Jan 20 12 minutes ago, Harrisfan said:Is this considered a top 5 British dish?I guess it depends on the width of your horizon.It's a classic traditional dish, one borne out of necessity, a way to make a little go a long way, baking meat or sausage within a batter pudding. It's the name that makes it peculiar, much like the famed Stargazy Pie. Neither are dishes I'd cross the street for.
January 20Jan 20 Not probably in the top 5, but sausage in batter is good scran! I like it, and make it from time to time. I use the local (Chiang Rai) spicy sausage which gives it a different slant!

I suspect a UK poll would place chicken tikka masala ahead of fish & chips closely followed by bangers and mash.Personally I have a soft spot for a traditional Sunday roast; roast beef, Yorkshire pud, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, seasonal veg, horseradish sauce and plenty of gravy. If not beef then roast pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce. But I'm equally happy with just some fresh crusty bread, butter, a goodly slab of Stilton and a pickled onion.

January 20Jan 20 Popular Post It would be a favourite of the post WW2 generation, all depends on the sausages and how good your Yorkshire Pudding is, with some creamy mash, vegetables, and some decent gravy, a good mid-week dinner/lunch.

January 21Jan 21 Not a top 5, but certainly a well liked dish. Especially among older people. I think like many British dishes, it likely came about as a cheap way of stretching limited meat supplies to create a filling meal. Very good with mashed potato, veg and gravy.Though the above is an older dish, I remember many such cheap dishes as a child that I haven't seen for years, such as either faggots, or saveloy with pease pudding, pigs trotters, sausage stew.. I think that these were a result of food shortages during and after both world wars.

January 21Jan 21 I often make Toad in the Hole when I break my Keto diet for a few days. It's an easy dish to make, and with the wonderful sausages available here, it's a delicious meal. High carbs because of the Yorkshire batter, but when not counting them, it's a warming meal!I prefer to cut the sausage into smaller pieces or use bulk sausage and roll it into meatballs. I get more of the Yorkshire pudding taste with each bite that way!
January 21Jan 21 Toad in the hole. Made with my home made sausages. Onion gravy, peas and mashed potatoes. Aroi mahk!
