Sat on DS2s floor waiting for him to go to sleep and thinking of the chippy tea I'll be having shortly but can't decide what I want. Inspire me with your favourites!

Breaded fishcakes (round here a lot of them are in batter, it's vile), pickled egg, chips, curry sauce.

Small cod, loads of s & v. Scallop batch, again loads of s & v. Can of irn bru.

LadyLovelyLockz · 24/11/2020 19:20

To share between the 2 of us - 2 fish, 1 chips, battered sausage, mushy peas, curry sauce!

Personally I reckon you can't beat cod and chips.

Pickypolly · 24/11/2020 19:20

Here up north it’s chips peas & gravy.
Bloody lovely.

Notashandyta · 24/11/2020 19:20

Cod bites, chips, pickled onions LOADS of salt and vinegar, can of coke

LubaLuca · 24/11/2020 19:20

Chips and curry sauce, scraps, lots of salt and vinegar. Dandelion and burdock.

blackteaplease · 24/11/2020 19:21

Fish supper with a battered sausage

GiraffeNecked · 24/11/2020 19:21

Haddock, chips, mushy peas and lots of salt and vinegar....old style.

When vegetarian I used to love a deep fried cheese and tomato mini pizza.

Daisy829 · 24/11/2020 19:21

Fish, chips, mushy peas. Lots of salt & vinegar & a pot each of curry sauce & gravy for dipping. Sometimes I have Mayo on the side too. 😋

Shayisgreat · 24/11/2020 19:22

Battered sausage and chips all the way!

Pebbledashery · 24/11/2020 19:22

Medium cod, chips with lots of scraps, loads of s and v, gherkin, can of rio. Delish.

LooneyLovefood · 24/11/2020 19:22

Either fish, chips and mushy peas or batter sausage, chips and gravy. Tons of salt and vinegar on both. Always with a can of Dr Pepper though.

InvisibleToEveryone · 24/11/2020 19:22

Chicken shish kebab with garlic sauce and chilli sauce, with lettuce and both cabbages.

A few chips.

Cauterize · 24/11/2020 19:23

Cod, chips and mushy peas. God I'm salivating at the thought

AgeLikeWine · 24/11/2020 19:24

Cod, chips and peas with no S&V. Chippies use cheap ‘non-brewed condiment’ instead of proper malt vinegar, so I wait until I get home then add ground sea-salt & Sarson’s.

Backbee · 24/11/2020 19:24

Chips with battered sausage and a pickled egg- yum. If they do them we share a portion of mushrooms too.

Lovelydovey · 24/11/2020 19:24

At home, small cod and chips, gherkin, mushy peas and tartare sauce.

Or if near the sea - battered pittenweem prawns, and calamari.

whoami24601 · 24/11/2020 19:25

Oh my god so many good options! Chicken shish kebab though? That's not a chippy tea!

Id share a fish or a sausage supper with a side of fritters, picked onion and tomato sauce.

I don’t know if it’s a Scottish thing but a ‘supper’ just means ‘with chips’ , so sausage supper is sausage and chips, fish supper is fish and chips. Just saying in case it’s not a common name out of Scotland.

Are fritters a Scottish thing or does everyone know what they are too - a big slice of potato dipped in batter and fried.

Served with salt and vinegar usually, same as suppers are.

JiltedJohnsJulie · 24/11/2020 19:25

Another vote for chips, mushy peas & gravy. If you could through in some bread & butter too that would be great Smile

yearinyearout · 24/11/2020 19:25

Haddock, chips, tartar sauce and some white bread n butter for me.

CoronaIsWatching · 24/11/2020 19:26

Just haddock, chips, mushy peas and breadcake

PaperMonster · 24/11/2020 19:26

Cod and mushy peas.

whoami24601 · 24/11/2020 19:26

Ooh a scollop butty might be a good shout!
