[@dollybearzz8401]

👋 Well, I’ve just enjoyed a delicious little meal of Spam fritters with a few home-made chips; all thanks to your inspirational video! I was so hungry watching this, I went straight to the kitchen and set up my new mini-fryer! Thank you so much, Sharon and Martin, for all your inspirational food videos! 👍😁

[@butlersempire]

Thanks for watching, glad you liked the video

[@Wetthewhistle]

For some reason I’ve always wanted to see your old built in fryer working. Didn’t even know they existed tbh.

[@jonnyy1495]

I remember having these at school. Never had with bacon though looked delicious👍

[@stevev3664]

There is also a 340g can. Waitrose sells it.

[@Volvofh12Agt]

[@TheCar1ter]

Grew up on spam here in Missouri USA SPAM FRITTER SOUNDS GREAT

[@glyniskathrynevans1723]

Hi, Every time I saw a tin of spam I always remember my Nan doing spam fritters and chips for me. Never could do them myself but now I can. Thanks ❤ u. I just turned 70 in Feb of this year.

[@dollybearzz8401]

🤔 Perfect timing for me to watch this video! Yesterday I bought a little mini-deep-fryer, similar to one of the ones I saw in a previous video of yours, when you were looking in The Factory shop. Mine was £23 from my local retail outlet. It’ll be christened today, using the tin of Spam in my cupboard and a few chips. (No bacon in the fridge at the moment though, so just a plain Spam fritter.) All your food videos are so appetising! 👍 😁

[@butlersempire]

Enjoy Dolly

[@taracochrane301]

Bloody brilliant, thanks 😊 I love you two ❤️

[@markellis4229]

OMG Spam fritters! My husband’s favourite! Love your videos 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@stevek3036]

You can't get spam fritters down in the Thames Valley :( However, Sainsburys do Spam with BACON version. Very most excellent. Don't know if its new but I suspect so.

[@themowerman]

Looks lovely

[@wickedwitch4473]

[@ianwigmore4852]

Hi Martin. What book are you using my wife has asked?. You're making me very hungry ☺️☺️ keep up the good work

[@butlersempire]

It is the Modern Cook Book 1946 edition.

[@danelectro68]

They do look nice, the modified does look better. What would you have them with, say for your tea?

[@butlersempire]

Chips, beans and even an egg Neill.

[@clipshark1]

I laughed so much at this lol. Great video and im sure it tastes lovely

Brilliant ♥

[@sarahlougray6303]

As you know I love your videos can I ask please where did you get your recipe book please would love to try some more 😋 x

[@butlersempire]

We got it from a secondhand book shop. its a very old book. I would suggest looking through junk shops ect as we did.

[@sarahlougray6303]

@@butlersempire thank you

[@TheSecRATary]

Only spotted and made these yesterday, (Sat 25th Feb). Absolutely stunning !!! Great find with that old cookery book. 👍📚 I also slightly thickened up the batter as suggested, and managed to get 7 × thick 'Spam' fritters from a 340g tin, and I used 'unsmoked' streaky bacon. So that's 'Spam' back on the shopping list then ... Thanks for another great, (as always), video. 😋👍

[@topconker2909]

Hey Guys, we don't have a deep fgat fryer, could these be shallow fried instead?

[@topconker2909]

would an air fryer work?

[@butlersempire]

Air fryers are not really fryers, more like mini fan ovens turbocharged.

[@butlersempire]

I don't see why not Phil.

[@cowgirl.4363]

yes, I've done them that way, not quite as good, you have to put a good bit of oil in the pan. they're not bad. turn them over very quickly to set the batter on the upwards side, then back to first side to finish it off.

[@01arron]

Hi both. Have you done a home made sausage in batter?

[@butlersempire]

Yes but not on camera

[@01arron]

@@butlersempire will it be something you would do a video for? I’ve always wanted to make them but the videos I’ve seen aren’t helpful and they use loads of different spices and all of that

[@butlersempire]

@@01arron Yes we will do.

Yes she does Gary

[@AvaT42]

Which spam did you prefer, the war time batter or the thick modern batter?

[@butlersempire]

Can't remember, it was a while ago

[@andddyw88]

Watch everyone of these videos,my lot are a big fan of the treacle pudding made it twice in a fortnight,all the best

[@3crchair424]

Be great if you could make pie, mash and liquor guys.

[@mumblingsole]

Is it possible to make the spam fritters in air fryer as I have type 2 Diabetes Borderline. But love spam fritters yours look awesome ❤

[@RolyHough]

Can we do these in the Air Fryer please x

[@bigsteve9291]

Great video guys you should try pea cakes we used to get them from our local chippy they are a early recipe but I carnt find a recipe for them there just like a fish cake or savory but called pea cakes late 50s early to mid sixtys

[@butlersempire]

Not heard of those Steve, were they a regional thing?

[@bigsteve9291]

@@butlersempire not really sure where they originally came from but our local chippy sold them I am from runcorn in Cheshire but ado know theres a chip chop in prestatyn in north wales that still do them

[@bobyearley5088]

I haven't had a spam fritter for years. How about how to airfry them?

[@SandraDent-lf4xy]

You can't air fry runny batter, that's the only thing about air fryers. When i got mine i kept my chip pan because i like to do cod in my own batter. I usually try a few pieces and freeze them then reheat them in the air fryer, it works out well

[@annirvin6555]

We know.😊

[@gilljamieson593]

I’m thinking a layer of cheese would go well x

[@basingstokedave4292]

milk was a lot thicker in them days more creamy as with other ingredients. any yes my wages are getting smaller with time ...lol

[@maggiedoor6093]

It makes me wonder if the flour has changed over the years? Would the flour years ago absorb more liquid ? What makes a flour do that, no idea. I just know that when I make 3 loaves of bread sometimes I have to increase the flour, sometimes less. Same recipe, but my flour brand can change . I buy 20 lb bags. My husband eats a lot of bread unfortunately. (But slim)

[@davesmith4413]

vinegar yucky spam yummy

[@STTC]

Martin and Sharon, these are the worst things mankind has ever invented. I used to hold these in my mouth as a child and spit them out when I left the table, absolutely disgusting 🤣🤣👍🏻

[@butlersempire]

Haha we love them.

[@cowgirl.4363]

maybe try them again now, our tastes change!

[@francisraffle2948]

What lovely fishcakes Sharon have you thought of buying frozen fish for your fishcakes a couple of those fishcakes for me with proper mushy peas the ones you soak and cook would do me gor my tea love fran xxxx

This was frozen Fran.
