What did you cook/eat today (March 2017)?

[Morning Glory]

I have no idea how I managed to misread that!

Anyway, beer battered cod, chips and Yorkshire dhal again this evening for me. You'd think I like it!

The pieces of cooked batter in the deepfry we call "scraps". They were free in the chippy when I was a kid.

Do you put tomato sauce on the chips?

Do you put tomato sauce on the chips?

Never, ever! Wash your mouth out!

I didn't know tomato sauce existed until I moved out of Yorkshire!

 

[MypinchofItaly]

Bowl pasta with aubergine, fresh tomatoes, leaves of basil and grated parmesan on top.

In this context, are we talking about ketchup?

I rummaged through the frudge this morning and found a little bit of corned beef, boiled cabbage and redskin potatoes leftover. I was surprised to deem it OK using my sniffer, so I roughly chopped and quickly fried it in butter with a pinch of smoked paprika and a pinch of turmeric. Topped with an over easy egg, it was delicious.

Redskins potato...are they a little sweet?

Yes.

 

[buckytom]

No, not really. Not like a sweet potato in any way.They are a type of firm wax potato.

That is my understanding.

 

[Cinisajoy]

I read potato farls wrong too.
No idea on today's meal yet.

Eggy! We are big on eggs here - but I've never understood; what does 'easy over' actually mean? And if they aren't cooked easy over then what are they called?

Over easy means they are flipped over and cooked just long enough to close the eye (yolk), other frying method is called sunny side up.

No one has never thought of this possibilty

Over easy means they are flipped over and cooked just long enough to close the eye (yolk), other frying method is called sunny side up.

So if they are cooked 'sunny side up' are they basted with fat to 'film over' the yolk?
