Thread: Dinner

I just saw on google. Some do the wooster and tabasco but without the horseshit

Yeah that 'Classic' recipe with horseradish certainly isn't applicable in the UK.

Of course, nobody would ever think of doing something similar in Germany and even calling it their national dish:

I thought it was made by mixing ketchup with mayonaisse or is it salad cream?

Only on Sundays and special events.

Camberwell or Southwark?

The thing with the blue fork in it?

Foked if I know, but I'll take 3 of 'em cheers.

It's a currywurst L. Sausage with curry ketchup on top and found throughout Germany. Fairly pleasant, but I'm not gonna admit that to Stroller, am I? ;-)

You'd be right in wondering how the spices came to be in the ketchup, given that our teutonic friends like their food to be especially bland and non spicy.

Well, it was thanks to British soldiers who gave some of their curry powder to a lady in Berlin at the end of the 1940s.

So, thanks to the British, the Germans actually have something worth eating!

Fortunately your breakfast sausages, which consist mostly of breadcrumbs & gristle, nor any other Brit 'specialties' caught on, not even with a starving post WW2 population.

Which leaves the great British culinary legacy on the continent:
Curry powder sprinkled on top of ketchup!

And this would still be more than the German contribution to world gastronomy.

They got the beers right.



And the blondes.

Can't knock the beers.

If you drink enough, you don't even notice that your bratwurst has the taste and texture of a hot dog crossed with a cucumber.

You'd still need it smothered in British curry ketchup to actually enjoy one though.

Few meals over the weekend..

Now that's good eatin' right there.

Back to boring basics.



Actually not bad with a few drops of soy sauce and large squirt of lime juice.

Looks primo... might have to scoff an apple before bed, getting hungry..

Yeah, looks great, just needs chili powder, lime juice & nam pla.

Fin Burger last night...

How sophisticated, Richard.
Mayo w/ chips.....


Surely, you're not one these colonial English natives that figures any such English culinary "legacy" with the likes of curry. Like most all of the Western world - and most certainly the English-speaking variety - everything they know and are was introduced or borrowed from the real worlds.

Cheers!

Bet they were great. What did you put on them before the baking process?

Might do up a batch next weekend.

Maybe diced Jalapeños?. In any case, top work Dickie your food looks excellent (again).

I copied "Lonestar restaurant" it's Gherkin relish (yup, gerkins) like the stuff in big macs that most of us chuck away... but it somehow works well, they were as yummy as they look.

Just par-boiled, then salt, pepper, cayenne pepper.. topped with sour cream (or yogurt and gherkin relish)

How many times you fry yer chips Dicky ??
