Cottage pie? Why not! I tried recently after watching a lot of hot ones, I just can't do it! Encona West indies extra hot was my limit and I wouldn't say I particularly enjoyed that, just made some grilled chicken wraps with salad, cheese and splash of that and some mayo... Had to strip down to my boxers I was sweating that bad, day after was shite too (although alcohol deserves some of the blame) I'm back down to sirracha and eyeing up the company's sweet chilli sauce next Before Xmas in the States I did get a bottle of daves gourmet creamed jalapeño sauce, incredible stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 20, 2020 Vinegar on chips has always baffled me. It's not that nice for a start. But worse than that, it makes your chips soggy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Only have vinegar with fish and chips. But in that case it's loads of vinegar, and it's delicious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 People that have malt vinegar on chips are morally bankrupt. It needs to be pickled onion vinegar as mentioned above or that weird non-brewed chip shop stuff that can’t legally be called vinegar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a dollop of brown sauce on the side. We've gone over this many times but I'm not one for a wet chip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s taking it too far At the start of Tom Kerridges book (not his last one the one before) he does a couple of pages on how to generally eat healthier and how he he lost all the weight, along with him saying no beer several times he also says that you should add spice to every dish, something scientific about your body going in to fight or flight mode to get rid of the heat, speeds your metabolism up and you digest it quicker reducing the fat intake from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A classic Christmas party food in Sweden is blue cheese on ginger snap biscuits. A mix of sweet, salty and Christmas spice, it sounds like it would be similar to your invention. I’ve also seen it done with a thin slice of pear added on top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, vinegar just makes all chips just soggy and for me thats bad. Chips need to be salted and nothing else. Same with popcorn. Has to be salted, none of this sweet nonsense. Preferably with melted butter but no cinema does that now Though I agree with you, bacon cheeseburger wrapped in lettuce? WTF @AVFC_Hitz? You're likely to get a warning from @bickster for using lettuce! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't like chip shop curry sauce. If your having curry sauce, it needs to be proper chinese or indian curry sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I've also recently discarded the vinegar from chips, doesn't add much flavour wise and makes them wet and soggy. Just salt now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprinkling something mind-altering on their chips that’s for sure. I was worried this lockdown would change us forever, never saw it manifesting in a distaste for the great vinegar. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
