In the North East of the UK there are things like
A Half Lot - This is a small portion of Fish N' Chips. Even just outside the region people don't know what it is.

Scraps - These are small bits of batter from the deep frying process that you can ask for with your chips.

Pease Pudding - This is a paste made from peas and flavourings inc ham. It could be compared to hummus.

Parmo - This is a breaded and cooked chicken breast which is then covered in bechamel and cheese then recooked. Usually served with chips and salad.]]>

From tomorrow, Britons can buy the world's first lasagne sandwich - complete with a slice of pasta - for £2.

Dubbed the LAS-andwich, it was inspired by students who reckon the mixture of cold lasagne and bread is the ultimate snack.

Instead of duck I used corn fed chicken breast.
I didn't use the honey and five spice
I didn't have wild mushrooms so used standard mushrooms in the base and some oyster mushrooms at the last minute.
I also used some cooking chorizo just because I had it Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register to forum by clicking here to see images.

3- to 4-pound beef pot roast
flour
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 beef bouillon cube or base
1/2 cup hot water
12 to 18 small white onions, peeled
4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 pound carrots, peeled and quartered

SOUR CREAM GRAVY:

•1 1/3 cups drippings
•3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•1/4 cup cold water
•1 cup sour cream, room temperature

Preparation:

Coat both sides of pot roast with flour. In a large deep baking dish, melt butter; brown meat slowly on both sides. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Dissolve bouillon cube in hot water; pour over meat. Cover and place in a preheated 350° oven; cook 1 1/2 hours.

Add onions and carrots; cook 15 minutes. Add potatoes; sprinkle with a little more salt. Cook about 45 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove meat and vegetables to a warm platter; keep warm.

Prepare sour cream gravy:

Pour drippings from pot roast into saucepan. Blend together flour and water. Heat drippings to boiling; gradually stir in flour and water mixture and cook, stirring constantly until gravy is thickened. Cook 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and slowly stir in sour cream. Heat through, but do not boil.

Makes 6 to 8 servings

What I like about this one is the gravy can be poured over heated beef sandwiches the next day]]>
