Bubble & Squeak

[sherrardk]

What would you serve with bubble & squeak? (Going to have to make it from scratch as there is never enough leftovers to make another meal with.). Thanks for any ideas.

Crispy bacon and a poached egg...yum :)

Baked beans and cold meats, with lashings of HP or Branston.

I often make it with Lincolnshire sausages and lots of onion gravy - delish!

what is bubble and squeak - since i am on here - i know I can google it but please let me know how to make it even - may not like it of course.

I love bacon chops but they are so hard to get round here, even asked in butchers shops and they just don't do them. Thanks for the ideas - looking like bacon/ham and beans then (we don't really do eggs).

[sherrardk]

Conne - I think it is mashed potatoes and cabbage, made into little cakes and fried. Others might have different views in it.

[shoota]

Bit of onion too Sherr. You can use sprouts as well, just dont make the mash too sloppy.

[losgigs]

I'd agree with Sherr, but can have lots of variations depending what green veg is available. Similar to colcannon or champ really.

[Connemmara]

thanks sherrardk - apart from being fried into little rounds - it would be known in NI as Colcannon - same as Champ which has spring onions/scallions as we know it.

You were mentioning bacon chops and finding them difficult to get - I think I may have seen them in Sainsburys last week - I am sure I did - have a wee look you are in

[sherrardk]

You're welcome Conne, just trying the little peeps on different stuff (but not too different as I don't want anyone going hungry). They are excellent eaters and love their veg so just trying to stop things getting boring.

[losgigs]

So I see Conne! I knew you'd know what I mean if I said champ. It sounds nice - what would you serve it with?

[tamborine]

Toad in't hole with b&s.

[Connemmara]

Logs are Lincolnshire sausages nice cos I do find some sausages rotten even from the best of butchers

[Connemmara]

with champ - Dennys sausages cos I am sure of them, lovely bacon and maybe a pork chop - delish too.

My mum used to serve champ on a Friday with her own battered fish - magnificio

[Connemmara]
