Thank you. Tuesday tea sorted.

ThursdayLastWeek · 08/11/2015 19:51

I'd have to add ham for it to be just right but basically yes.

Loads of salt and ketchup mmmmmmmmmmm

That meal is basically why I eat runny eggs despite of being pregnant.

Marshy · 08/11/2015 19:52

You are right......except it's chips and egg Grin

NoelHeadbands · 08/11/2015 19:53

With brown sauce, two slices of white buttered bread and a large pot of strong sweet tea?

Yes, I concur.

NoelHeadbands · 08/11/2015 19:53

Chips and egg makes me think of Shirley Valentine.

applecatchers36 · 08/11/2015 19:54

Yep and with Gammon even nicer, we are having tonight DP just going to shop to get eggs can't wait...

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 08/11/2015 19:55

I'm 47, back in the day Friday night tea was egg and chips as it was all that was in the house, a bag of potatoes by the back door being the staple of the pantry to assist eggs.

Senpai · 08/11/2015 19:56

Yabu not to share. Hmm

trollkonor · 08/11/2015 20:00

Oh YANBU.

Fantastic meal that goes down well with the entire family. One son and me like peas with it, husband and other one like beans, both sons like a sprinkle of mature cheddar.

StellaAlpina · 08/11/2015 20:01

I don't think I've ever had egg and chips. It seems a strange combination to me. Goodness knows why as I've eaten scrambled eggs with hashbrowns and Spanish omlettes plenty of times.

Hepzibar · 08/11/2015 20:02

YANBU. you get my vote.

Seeyounearertime · 08/11/2015 20:02

Egg, with runny yolk,
Golden deep fried chips,
Spoon of beans
And a Sausage < This makes it God tier Grin
Also: Bread and butter for chip sarnies.

Hygellig · 08/11/2015 20:05

I love egg and chips.
Or chips and egg, as Shirley Valentine put it.

Cheesymonster · 08/11/2015 20:05

Oh yes. NoelHeadbands has it exactly right.

Marshy · 08/11/2015 20:06

Double egg even better. Has to be with salt and malt vinegar and a mug of tea.

Definitely white bread and butter

SheGotAllDaMoves · 08/11/2015 20:10

My lovely Dad used to make it.

With proper chips. Potatoes dried on a tea towel then fried in the chip pan.

Brown sauce to go with. I always insisted on the Daddies brand Grin.

Darvany · 08/11/2015 20:10

With a bit of grated cheese on the yolks.

And maybe Philadelphia on the side to dip the chips in.
