Title: Peas or Curry?
Post by: smurfboy on August 16, 2005, 02:50:10 pm

Vote now - what do you have with your chips?

Mushy peas get my vote every time. Mind you, I am occasionally tempted to dip a chip in a fellow scoffer's curry sauce.

We have pea fritters down here in the south.  I do like curry sauce though.

I hate peas and mushy peas fill me with horror. Curry sauce on chips is, to me, rather eccentric as is gravy and chips. The best thing ever to have with chips is a nice runny egg.

I can't decide, has to be both.

I agree with oldspice a nice runny egg is the best.

I have mayo with my chips.

I like mushy peas and curry sauce, but not with chips

A sort of ball of mushy peas in crispy batter.  Nice with lots of ketchup.

Talking of curry sauce, has anyone tried the curry sauce granules (like gravy granules) you can get?  I've seen them in Lidl but haven't bought them.

I like mayo with my chips if I had to choose. But chip shop chips are
best with only salt and vinegar....i'm hungry just thinking about it!

I agree with you choc chick chip shop chips are best with salt and vinegar. I used to like mayo with my chips but I'm more of a brown sauce person now.

I prefer ordinary salad cream to mayo with chips

I like salad cream better than mayo. Some mayo's taste like having  a mouthful of nivea.

I agree with you choc chick chip shop chips are best... 

when their crisp crust crackles.

Now, will you pass the pink peas, please?

And say it out loud this time, on repeat.

I agree loulou. Salad cream is better but my chip shop only does mayo or tartare sauce (which also works well with chips, by the way).

All this talk of chips made me go to the chip shop last night on my way home from work. And walking up the road, I found a £5 note on the pavement  so my meal was free!

Good point there cherry ripe, tartare sauce does go will with chips.

I don't like tartare sauce. When I go to the pub for scampi and chips they always offer it but I prefer salad cream.

Sauce Tartare is so nice with plaice.

'sticks nose in air'.

I like salad cream but sometimes it can taste a bit too 'vingerary'
