HI Ron,

Lobbies-potatoes cut into irregular shapes ,carrots in small pieces.onions ,beef or lamb pieces.Cooked in a pan on the hob.

Served with roughly mashed carrot and swede and mushy peas,garnished with pickled red cabbage and beetroot and my hubbies case HP sauce too.

If you make too much you have it the following day with a crust on it,preferably a suet crust-called in these parts -prater pie.

Kidney pie--absolute favorite!

My southern Mom makes a mean Cornish pasty (with parsnips and a part-shortening, part-lard crust), which I dearly love as well. Not very heart-healthy but mighty tasty!

I love authentic English fish and chips too, Peggy.  There are a lot of places over here that do fish and chips, but they're not so great. And yes, the peas too, but they have to be mushy.  Smile

I love the roasted parsnips too that they serve with Sunday roast.

Besides Bakewell tarts, the EGGS in the UK are just sooooooo delicious, I am going to be there for two weeks this spring and have already requested an egg every morning lol.  Was telling my daughter how good the eggs are there and she said Mom an egg is an egg and I said NO THEY ARE NOT !!!  Ruth you are also right about the fish and chips, no comparison in the US that I have found.

I love eggs too, coppercat. I will fry and egg over here, but it's just not the same as the fried eggs I grew up with; probably because mine are not fried in lard or sausage or bacon fat.
