[@aa-kv2pq]

Steak and kidney pudding please please please do one not pie but pudding

[@Mand6619]

Sausage rolls & Bangers/mash! Yum..love me some sausages. I have never heard of f@ggots...they are offal based?? liver..beef..lungs..kidneys?? or mixed of all of the above? interesting..what are they based on if you don't mind me asking? Looks like regular meatballs...or saulsbury steaks in the US. Delish either way I bet!!

[@Adam_Garratt]

It's a bit scuffed isn't it. I kind of get it to a degree, it's just lost in translation but I don't think KZbin can figure out context. In person, it's fine because everyone knows what you mean. On here though I just don't trust the automated processes to distinguish what I actually mean. I remember a few years back during what we called the 'ad pocalypse' KZbin would demonitise you for the most ridiculous stuff. Mine often got demonitised purely for having a knife in the video!

Looks tasty Adam. I used my slow cooker earlier this week to make caramelized onions for onion gravy. I put them on low in the morning. Once done in the evening, it was easy to put the meal together after my workday.

This has me craving Salisbury Steak now! I'm afraid I'm allergic to liver, so... and offal... ouch (I DO love Tripe...) I'm sorry, Adam, I'll make it with ground pork (please don't block, me, just discovered you and am LOVING your vids). I've never seen offal meatballs in any shop or butcher shop here in the USA Now my Bae's from Limerick, and will totally make this as you did. We routinely enjoy Bangers & Mash, Toad in the Hole, Scotch Eggs, Bubble & Squeek, Yorkshire Puddings, Shepherd's Pie, Full Breakfast (sorry, the Bae's Irish/Slovenijan, and won't call it ENGLISH LOL - It's eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, baked beans, rashers of bacon, Canadian bacon... the difference is Slovenijan sausage & Slovenijan blood sausage & a lot of times Spaetzle instead of potatoes).

[@andyleighton3616]

You make your mash the same way as me - you even have the same kind of potato ricer! I always make more than I need partly because I can always use the extra for bubble and squeak or in smoked mackerel fishcakes and partly because my eyes are bigger than my belly. Personally I am not a huge fan of offal based meatballs (tm) but that is probably because I can only get Mr Brains. But a decent onion gravy with sausages (I can get really good Lincolnshire sausages) also works great, it would probably work with a proper haslet too if you warmed it through gently.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Funny you should say that, I'm going to make fishcakes with my leftover mash as well. And Haslet is again something I love

[@hansmiller664]

In Germany they are called "Boulletten" or "Frikadellen". I make them quite often. Definitely the same way you do them! It's DELICIOUS!

Aww, I thought you'd have a recipe to make those....'things'. I've never come across them here in Ireland but I've heard about them all right, I've made ordinary meatballs so I'd be interested to get the recipe for the.....'things'. I make the same onion gravy but I don't cook the onions for that long, maybe I'll try some time. I usually add a splodge of tomato paste along with the splodge of Worcestershire Sauce, mainly because I have to make gluten free gravy and the tomato sauce helps to thicken the gravy.

Fav old classic? I think Lamb’s Liver and onions, again with good mash pots and a good mashed swede. Swede cooked in microwave, whole. Inside scooped out, seasoning. Sorted! The swede could go through the ‘ricer’ too ?

[@neilpickup237]

A friend used to get some for me from a butcher whenever he visited his mother. They froze well, too. When adding flour to a dish, perhaps a little overkill, but I add it a tablespoon at a time but through a seive - not only does this allow it to be incorporated more quickly, but it practically eliminates the chance of lumps, as the flour is spread so evenly. Regarding the mash, it's pretty much the same, although I no longer add salt to the water, but season afterwards, I can't tell the difference, and it certainly uses less salt than you would need if adding to the water alone. If the potatoes are rather prone to become waterlogged or boil into the water, I find that steaming them is a good option. I usually try to do as much mash as my largest pan will take, portion, cool, and then freeze. It is always a little on the dry side when re-heated in the microwave, but a little milk sorts that one out. This saves so much time and effort. As a variation on the mash theme, I sometimes add freshly grated nutmeg, but do be careful. The difference between 'why bother' and 'too much' is very little, so keep tasting as you go. To speed up the onions, I start them with the oil as you do, but also a little water and a lid (sorry, back to the lids again!) This allows the onions to wilt a little and when the lid is removed, the little water evaporates quickly, but you now have a far better onion contact with the pan, and quicker, and in my opinion, far better with more even caremelisation without so many 'burnt bits'

@@Adam_Garratt Hiya, Adam. Here's the resumé...I looked at my onion store and only had one red onion, so used that.

It caramelised somewhat quicker than I expected, but I understand this is the way with red onions. Thickened with a little flour, added the jelly pot, Worcestershire sauce, a little dried thyme - and YAY! Success!!! I was annoyed that I didn't have any tatties to hand, but I made enough gravy for two meals so that's tommorow's din-dins sorted - and a quick trip to Tesco this evening will provide another couple of onions and the necessary potatoes.

I had a work colleague who was picking an American visitor from his hotel one morning and asked him as he offered a package of cigarettes if he wanted a fag, The American rep who knew my colleague very well said "Do you want a smack in the mouth".

I found a really good recipe for a British Banger which I make (except I leave out the filler, so I guess that disqualifies it as a "banger"). Could I substitute that for the fag....meatballs?

[@Adam_Garratt]

The term banger comes from really cheap sausages with too much water content, which would explode in the pan. It hails from the second world war when meat was scarce and we just kept the word banger to loosely describe sausages. A good sausage though does need a bit of filler, usually bread crumbs. These help absorb some of the fat whilst cooking and helps keep them juicy. No filler means you get a drier sausage

Hi Adam , Thought I'd share with you my latest find. I was online , not sure if you've ever covered authentic 'KFC'. I found an article about authentic mix from Ireland called Grace's special strong mix" It's amazing, perfect balance of flavour, right through the chicken. You marinade the chicken in buttermilk and whisked eggs(2) Then you roll the soaked chicken in the special mix. I let mine sit for an hour in the fridge, helps it a bit. I air fryer the chicken , bit of checking the first time, was 200°c,for about 30 /35 mins. Let it rest for a few mins..it's perfect. I am flabbergasted, I've emailed graces perfect blend ,telling them my appreciation for fantastic product. They also do hot wings powder and a gravy and a curry.
