Favourite meals anyone? What tickles your tastebuds, warms your belly, etc etc...? Tell all!

As for me, I am quite partial to good ol' chilli con carne... hmmmmmm...

Spaghetty Bolognese..

Sunday roast..

Or Cantonese, Thai, Chinese or Indian!

Ooooh maybe I shouldn't have started this topic I'm getting awfully hungry... I totally agree on spaghetti bolognese - but I think I've changed my mind now... Italian food makes me think of this dish I had in an Italian restaurant in town - grilled salmon in a butter sauce with peppers and garlic potatoes...

Apparently, it's Spaghetti

Oh well, 'spaghetti' or 'spaghetty' - either way it tastes as good!

Indeed! Especially when the sauce dribbles down your chin...

*Or maybe that's just me!! *

I think anyone can make a bit of a mess of themselves once in a while It can be quite awkward trying to slurp up an extra-long piece of spaghetti

I cheat and use pasta shells when cooking my own Spaghetti Bol!

Disgraceful!! Just kidding... Ooooh I love pasta... Tuna and pasta bakes are really nice too. Or cold pasta salads...

I love cheese.

Nothing, really.

Seeds?

Slow-baked jacket potato with whatever other veg are in the fridge, spinach salad and goats' cheese.

oh and sushi. Not all together of course.

Seeds are incredibly healthy, especially pumpkin seeds, linseed and sunflower seeds. Mixed with berries, mmm

I love roasted vegetables, with a honey or cinammon glaze.

Fried courgettes with lots of garlic and a dollop of houmous.

Or any veggie Thai food!

Wow that sounds great! I'm gonna try that sometime!

PASTA. I LOVE IT TO BITS.

I'm REALLY hungry now, and there is nothing in my house

How do you manage to glaze things with cinnamon?

Perhaps you meant honey and cinnamon?

Yogurt and granola and fruit...yum!

Oops, typo, sorry. You're right of course

Sunday roasts, yes

Also fruit (pretty much any fruit), cake (pretty much any cake) and crumbly cheeses, like Caerphilly

Anything that's not meat, fish or blue cheese.

Potatoes are good, as are most vegetables. Fruit are good too and I should eat more of them. Chocolate, biscuits and umm...cake. This may be why I'm fat.

Maybe I shouldn't have started this thread It's making me too hungry

I just realised how much I love garlic potatoes because I just had some yummm...

French toast! Wow!

I used to not like blue cheese, but it's growing on me now.

Not literally, you understand...

Very good Barry!

I'm glad it's not literally growing on you. I might have to find the postman and ask him nicely if I can have my York playday form back

Have just remembered another favourite : I do like pizzas. Particularly ones with fried eggs on.

I love pizza

Now, is there a pizza place near York?

Must email/PM phantasmagoriana...

There's definitely a pizza express there 'cos I went there once....

...and they do pizzas with eggs on them

Yes, there is. It's in an amazing building that looks like it should be a really nice hotel or something.

Indeed. I'm always suggesting putting egg on pizzas but my boyfriend claims that he was once in France at a place where they started cracking raw eggs onto pizzas just before eating. I'm pretty sure he's making it up but it seems to have the scared the life out of him

Can I buy glop with any meal I may have in your part of the world?

No, you have to make it yourself. I did advise against asking but since you have:

Glop is a misture of grated cheese, peanut butter and mushy peas and is wonderful on toast! There! I bet you wished that you hadn't now. It is almost as good as jam and english mustard on toast.

Since we're on the subject of food here, has anyone ever heard of Gloucester pudding?

It's a bit like a fluffy egg custard, except it isn't egg custard because I wouldn't eat it. My gran used to make it for us when we came home from holiday, but we don't know the recipe for it and I'd like to have a go at making it.

This is a complete guess, but could you be thinking of Crundle Pudding, which is an old Cotswolds desert?

Sounds just the sort of thing the French would do - people who will eat steak tartare are capable of anything!!!


Are you sure you didn't mean to post this in the OLTVA thread?! Or are you the person the ghastly lady in the Vicar of Dibley was based on?

Mrs Cropley! No, it is a favourite of mine, really. So is jam and mustard. Just ask Daisy Chain. She is coming to visit tomorrow!

I'm afraid to say every word is true!

korean (and japanese sometimes)
especially kim chi

also nasi timbel

my grandma's salad, pizza, junk food ^^ haha

I have to confess to having eaten that in Holland where it's also quite popular. My dad loves it and used to have it over here all the time too. I think I've eaten it over here too actually. I used to quite like it

Obviously now that I've been veggie for around 6 years just thinking about it makes me feel

I'm half French and I don't do that I think it's horrible-sounding!! Maybe it's because I'm only HALF-French

Roasted almonds

Thought I'd revive this thread, because I've got more food to mention!

Bhuna curry! Grapes! Ravioli! CARVERY!

I'm currently eating minestrone soup.
