Buble & sqeak

Sundae · 07-13-2013, 08:42 AM

Don't know about the States, but we have Colcannon mash here as well as bubble & squeak. Now I'll eat both. Happily. But they are different.

Colcannon tends to be a planned side, b&s is a main course to use up leftovers, which is why the ingredients vary from household to household. I put the kibosh on having sausage in it purely because meat is expensive. And cheap meat (dunno bout you 'Merlins but sausage meat is pretty much the bottom of the pile here) doesn't get a look-in as leftovers. Bought, cooked, scoffed.

My opinion only.

Thanks. It may be more like you say, planned vs leftovers.
