To think that coddle and fresh brown bread is a dinner?

[JinglingRexManningDay]

According to dd who is 14 and therefore knows everything its not. Now she had a bowl and a half before declaring shes full and is pestering for money for chips.

Yes, rashers are bacon.

Mmmmmm coddle

Although Burdocks chips are pretty good too not a patch on Borza's

No spuds!!!

I don't get this "dinner at 4.30" thing. Surely most people are still at work then? Or if not, they're not long home and so dinner wouldn't be ready for a good while after that?

Forgot to say: if she ate that early then a bag of chips at 9pm seems very reasonable to me, if she means she wants them later after her sports activity.

Here's a link to what I would consider to be a "proper" coddle

beginnings what about a Macari's smoked cod and chips....yum!

Borza can be stingy, hence my love of Macari.

And unbrowned sausages do indeed remind one of severed cocks. Ick.

It need something to thicken it, Slainte, the soup isn't supposed to be runny.

I think the potato would thicken it Flogging or is there somewhere in the back of my mind thinking my mum used to put barley in it? I'll ring her over the weekend to ask her.

Come back and update, Slainte, I fancy making it again

Yes please to smoked cod and chips. Yum.

Or smokin' cod as my nephew used to call it.

The OPs version is a trendy fusion Irish-Italian Coddle of course, very appropriate if you are going to Macaris for chips.
