It gets mixed together and almost fried --- like fryig potatoes and getting them just crispy. The name comes from the sound the mixture makes when it cooks. It's really, really good! ___________________ Sounds like potatoe pancakes with cabbage instead of onions in the batter..... Have you ever made them? Mashed taters, minced onions, egg, flour, pan fried in a little oil till brown like a pancake? Haven't had them in years. Not very ds friendly....LOL.

I didn't have many bowel problems here. Fish and chips, well, not the best choice. Delicious, though. The malted Granary flour bread worked well. It has been fun, over all. I am resting today and will probably make a quick run to Tesco's for some select items to take back home, such as Tetley tea and maybe some hockey pucks, I mean, cookies or " biscuits " . lol Marta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubby hated mashed taters (I know..crazy!) but he loves tatercakes! If I had a potato in the house I'd be boiling it right now!

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Yank??? Look Mr.California Boy! I have been there and eaten everything but the Haggis (sorry, couldn't get past the smell). But cabbage from ANY country will make me bubble and squeak, then add onions and frying them onto that and you go from bubble and squeak to boil and honk! in WA (happily eating bacon, yum!)

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Yes, Mel, it does remind one of potato pancakes, kind-a-sort-a. In addition to the " smashed " potatoes (not whipped), chopped boiled cabbage, and onions, B & S almost always contains meat of some kind. In Ireland (where this dish originates) the meat is always shredded or finely chopped pork. In England the meat is usually beef. It's the " traditional " way to use any leftovers. Jim Who wonders if Marta had any pasties while in England??? And who was 221 yesterday and 237 this morning.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 You YANKS have no respect! :-) It depends upon how much cabbage the B & S contains. Did you know the main staple of the ancient Roman diet was cabbage? I wonder why ROME wasn't called the windy city. ..... _____ From: DS_Friends_Keshishian [mailto:DS_Friends_Keshishian ] On Behalf Of SassyNpink@...

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 And THAT explains what is wrong with Australia! :-) Yes, true B & S has everything in it, but it almost always has cabbage and has to have potatoes. The first time I had it an Irish friend's mum made it for me and it had corned beef in it. I like any way it's prepared. I don't know about sweet potato though, I'll have to try that one!

Jim __________________ I bet it would be good with corned beef chopped in it. Yum! Speaking of meat pancakes...You know what my latest favorite food is? Egg foo yung...LOL. At this house there is a shop down the street where you can get a plate of food, rice, and an egg roll for 3.99. I'm not a big Chinese food freak, But my sister bought lunch one day and I wanted to try something different. Almost all Chinese sounds the same(meat and veggies) Well, I tried the roast pork egg fo yung and OMG, it was good. Definitely different! I figured with the pork and the egg, it's a good source of protein! Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 I love tea! It has the added benefit of being very soothing when hot. I found a black licorice, herbal tea that really seems help with the coughing and to relax the respiratory system a bit. Be careful if you have high blood pressure or allergy issues, though.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Licorice has a long history of use in herbal remedies for asthma, as does regular tea. Of all the herbal remedies and dietary supplements I tried (a lot), it was the only one besides tea that I found useful. It messed with my blood pressure even more than Advair, tho, so I keep it stashed away for bad days. > > I love tea!
