RIGHT! I'VE just gone nuts in Iceland (finally remembered to do it while I still had money fer't trolleydash!) I went berzerk in't boil-int-bag roast beef in gravy, crispy industrially roasted potatoes and Yorkshire puddings isle. Oh aye! I can't wait to get me purchases ont hot stove!If yer wondering about me Northern voice, I'm sorri I can't 'elp it. I'm all over't shop 'ere. I keep wanting to stick me 'ead out' tut window an gerron wi shoutin' "Yer idle! Yer bloody bone idle!" burrocourse that should be me Am talkin' ter. I console meself by mytherin' tut Trotters: "bin int nest? Aye yer 'ave that!"
For some reason they look at me like I'm utterly deranged...
This has to be a fairly quick post as food's int' oven and ont' 'ob now. I had one RBD last night, then woke up at 4 int' morning and 'ad industrially batter-crisped potato bits (I got industrially fatted roast potatoes as well but tiny ones are nicer...) and Yorkshire puddings, what rise like nobody's business. As I suspected it's far more wuthwhile buying't ingredients separately and slamming together int oven than spending £1.75 on industrial pub lunch platter, which is fine, but the amounts of potatoes, veg and meat (choice of beef or lamb~ woo!) in gravy is rather stingy...
Righto: better go. Trotters say hi!
THIS IS CLASSIC! Purloined here from't Australian Heroin Diaries blog...
Aye an' yer can tell "private party"'s meant ter be dodgi cause o't white girl dancing wit' "negro" around 4mins 17 seconds inter it!
ooooooh...that sounds sooo yummy. What time shall I be there? I would love to share a meal with you Gled, too bad there are so many miles between us. This post makes me want to go out and get me a big fat roast and get to roastin. Yorkshire pudding though, I have never had. I think I shall look it up and see if I can try to make that as well. Have a happy day gled....Denise
ReplyDeletedo you know the entire lot's done in under 0.5 an hour!
ReplyDeleteHow's about this: I'll email you some~!!
I'm sure your trotters must get too much exercise all the pinging they do.
ReplyDeleteWhat was I going to say? Oh yes, the accents. I pick up on accents very quickly and find myself talking like it. The other day someone did an impression of Mavis from corrie saying 'I don't really know.' I couldn't stop saying it for days. And now I'll probably start again.
Roasties, mmm. Yorkshire, mmm.

You really should have traditional apple pie and custard to follow - today (in the States) is Johnny Appleseed Day. Please take a look at my new blog to find out more.
Great post Gleds!
Yorkshire pudding.....mmmmmmmmm. My Grandma makes the best with her roast dinners. Everytime you go over to her house and it's in the oven she tells you that she is horrible at making it. She gets so stressed out about them not rising properly. Rise or not it's still top shelf.
ReplyDeleteNice to hear you're eating well. :)
ReplyDeleteBeef in a bag! What a travesty!
ReplyDeleteWell, one thing I'll say...you eat well and that's a good thing, Gleds. I've never tasted Yorkshire pud so I can't comment but a properly cooked roast of beef is out of this world and not a plastic bag roast either...a real one. Enjoy your meal.
ReplyDeleteLiz: aye I've bin thinkin' int Northern Accent fer dairz naw, anna caan' stoppit!

Amma right!??
(Yer not wrong!!)
HH: tut roarst beef dinner's really nice, I'll tell yer that fer nowt!
eileen-Reeny: My industrial ones look like biscuits ("cookies") before going int oven, then they rise massively... there's only 39 calories in each one and less than 2g of fat so they're really healthy. I wonder if you can buy pre-done Yorkie pudz in North America?... aye? or not...???
Akelamalu: aye!
ReplyDeleteBaino: yeah but it comes out really nice, honest! It's not as travesterial as microwave dinenrs, honestly I can tell you that. Once bag's open it's really nice ~ Granny Farthing Sunday Lunch Time malarkie!
Puss int Boots: NEVER HAD YORKSHIRE PUD?? And yer white Anglor-Saxon?! And living int' Empire! O lass wharrarwi gorn ter do wi yer??!??
