Since other people are posting haggis, then the fucking BANGER haggis pizza I had when I visited the U.K. More of a Scottish thing though, no?
More strictly then I suppose Fish'n Chips or a Cottage Pie. I has those too over there. Can't say it's noticeably different from the local Atlantic Canada themed joints all around me in a landlocked province ๐ .
Haggis is totally a Scottish thing, but it depends on who you ask whether Scottish counts as British or not. Some people get surprisingly militant about it
More of a Scottish thing though, no?
Scotland + Wales + England = Britain, you're clear.
Honestly fish and chips in terms of a meal.
As part of a meal, Yorkshire pudding is unlike anything Iโve had in America, and nothing like what it evokes in the typical American.
More like popovers almost.
OMG IT'S A SPINOFF POST I LOVE YOU TOO
Yeah because boring old me was going to comment "well I've only been abroad once, but..." ๐
We're reviving AskLemmy with these spinoff posts ๐ฅ
Also, everyone (including me in my other post) is going savoury โ how about sweet? Aero bar, in mint. Perfection. Bark candy mostly only comes in chocolate, or dark chocolate. Sometimes vanilla (white chocolate, which is not chocolate, it's vanilla and vanilla should own it because "white chocolate" is awesome, though it should really be called "Vanilla candy bark," but "bark candy" is really only known as... chocolate... hence "white chocolate"). Fun fact, I've had all kinds of bark candy. When I was a kid, I got it in orange and raspberry as well. Now it's only chocolate and... what I mentioned. Oh and mint chocolate, like Andes mints, but also those pastel-coloured mints that sometimes have the little white balls of hard sugar on them (I think those are just straight up mint bark though).
Again why TF don't we have bark candy in other flavours?
Jaffa cakes
JAFFA KREE
Liver and bacon with onion gravy, served with mash.
Dippy eggs with marmite on the soldiers
Toasted crumpets slathered in butter and marmite, or jam.
Marmalade on sourdough toast.
Ploughmans sandwiches with good bread. (This one is not as good since going vegan though, as vegan butter is almost identical but the cheeses not so much.)
Sticky toffee pudding
Christmas pudding
Roast potatoes
Elderflower cordial
Gin
Before going vegan I quite liked smoked makrel and various tinned fish on toast. Kedgeree was good too, but that's a Scottish take on an Indian dish.
Idk I don't really eat much 'British' food despite being born here, both my parents are immigrants from different countries.
People are stunned when I tell them our Christmas dinner is a British recipe. Although it is no classical British household recipe, but comes from Jamie Oliver.
Spotted Dick
A good balti.
Yep, already dreaming of my next one right now
I had a crack at assembling a pie barm after learning what it was. It was way better than it should have been.
What is it? A meat pie served on a bread roll (barm is a specific type I believe) with optional brown sauce (HP for example).
The roll is great for handling reasons and for when the arse falls out of the pie.
