It was not a Gravy and CHips debate, this is also perfectly normal. The perverts are the ones who have gravy with... fish, gravy and friggin fish, the sick bastards Should have made it clear, when I said "all the trimmings" that included a side of anchovies. The wife and all her family think bread and gravy is an abomination. Edited November 22, 2020 by Rds1983 Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, fill a Yorkshire pud with gravy then drop a couple of anchovies in so they kinda float about it and bob up and down, slice it open and watch as they sloosh all over the carrots and peas. Can't beat it. Spoiler For the love of God, please nobody actually try this. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

My grandfather would never have a meal that involved gravy without 2 thickly cut by hand half slices of bread to mop up the remaining gravy at the end of a meal. I suspect this was living through two world wars and the depression that caused him to be like that but for him it was the absolute highlight of the meal 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Growing up in Devon I was told it was a Northern thing as he was from Sheffield but the in laws are Cheshire based and don't approve. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
sidcow 13,892 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Highlight of lamb is 100% the mopping up of the remaining mint sauce and gravy with a slice of bread. It's also impossible to recreate this at the end of the meal by mixing unused mint sauce and remaining gravy directly on the plate. For some reason it has to be filtered through a roast dinner to reach the optimum consistency. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

You've got to experiment in life. I've never done, y'know, a tinned curry pie before. It was there on the bottom shelf taunting me, the dirty minx.
