Hopefully this won’t happen but who knows? It is strange that for an island nation our fish prices are so astronomical and have been high for years.
Coupled with the cost of other ingredients, have we had our chips?

^^^ Oh yes, indeed! ;0)))

ta for the honour, fatticus - a stir-fry of my own for supper though I am low on Hoisin sauce....

By the way, if you want to make your own authentic chip-shop curry sauce it's called Mayflower. Just mix with water.

Also delicious on chicken with rice & peas.

My pleasure DTC.
Your post highlights the rising costs that are head-scratchingly perplexing for an island nation.

Curry sauce on fish and chips is just plain wrong. Salt and vinegar, with a pickled onion on the side is the only way

The Mayflower Curry Sauce Mix is £1.15 at Iceland

I remember watching this series 11 years ago.
Almost criminal.



How is it that now we’re out of the EU and their regulations that fish is still astronomically high?

Wolfies of Hove prices top the lot on here I think. Very good though.

Cod £9.95
Hake £8.70
Haddock £9.95
Place £9.50
Red Mullet £7.50

Is that take-away Ladyb....?

[ladybirder]

Yes I think so.

[DTCwordfan]

Jeez - next thing Japanese prices and maybe with gold leaf adorning their presentation!

[barry1010]

Rick Stein in Cornwall. Take away cod £9.95, chips £2.95, mushy peas or curry sauce £1.75

[burlyshirley1]

Mmm I just feel like fish, chips and mushy peas now !

and the portions miniscule.... well cooked and the only redeeming feature being his 'Trevelyan' sorbets/ice-creams, from Looe, which were £2 for a good portion. His main restaurants are really quite expensive for what they are - he has never won a Michelin star though he has his protegés like Nathan Outlaw and Paul Ainsworth. In fact, his son now runs the catering and Rick concentrates on his travel and cooking abroad - at which he is pretty good at.

I will say Wolfie's portions are large DTC. Queues outside whenever they are open. Hove prices are London prices.
