It’s an abomination is what it is.

Do you not like proper gravy?

OH In that case what proof is it and is it like Absinthe

Yes of course, but I don’t think you understand, this isn’t something I cobbled to gather, this is a famous London dish that’s been going since the Victorian age. You dont have gravy with it, you have liquor

There was me thinking you couldn’t make gravy I understand now.

Traditionally the liquor contained the water from the boiled eels. That would have made you turn your noses up even more

I didn’t even like it when it was made with eel water, the fishy taste was just wrong. Potato water much better. You've got to have plenty of chilli vinegar too.

Chutney or lime pickle? Pickle all the way for me, love the stuff. Chutneys actually third on my list, beaten by both pickle and raita

Hmmm chutney or pickle - tough shout tbh ...

Like a good raita too!

There’s also that red sweet chilli dip Indian restaurants serve. That’s nice too. If you gave me a pile of poppadums, a naan bread and those four dips with the onion salad they do and I’d be happy as a pig in ****

 

[{SAS}TB]

See I'm quite partial to the onion salad but nobody else seems to be *fist bump*

I'm quite easy for all of them tbh and will be enjoying many at a food & drink festival on the 25th this month that has (Pre COVID) seen many traders serving all of these and more.

I and my BL were both banned from eating Hot Lime Pickle from Patak's many years ago on a camping holiday...I'll leave it to the imagination as to why
