The meat is pork ribs. Now, this plate is not perfect. Needs more gravy, for one thing. Do you not do roast potatoes in Norway? Boiled ones are rather dull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boiled potatoes are purely a gravy vehicle in my book, as I tend to agree they are rather bland on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually get offered some kind of smoked fish, or prawn cocktail (possibly deconstructed rather than full '80s), or pate and toast, or cured meats. And then I have all of them. You must have a metabolism like an inferno. It appears you eat tons and drink tons but still maintain a healthy weight. What is your secret?

I would say that's the sort of thing we have on Boxing Day, together with left over turkey etc from Christmas. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
