Rice pudding 😁

[FlaptheWings]

Definitely macaroni cheese, made with loads of mature cheddar and a good splodge of mustard to bring out the cheesiness. The same sauce is lovely also with cauliflower and broccoli, or poured over boiled eggs to make a mornay.

[Crystalgirl]

It has to be chicken cooked in coca cola served with lots of veges and buttery mash!!

[millililli]

Fish pie

[cshowell]

My go-to classics are Shepherds Pie, Mince Beef Pie, Beef Casserole with Dumplings and Spaghetti Bolognese. All are really warming and comforting on cold winter days.

[WishUponAStar88]

Lasagne with a load of veg good glug of red wine in it, can’t beat it.

[123hartley123]

nothing beats toad in the hole

[daisyduck123]

Good old fashioned Norfolk Cobbler.

[rhinosuze]

Coq au vin is a true classic, always order it if it's on a menu! I think Sunday lunch deserves classic status too, my favourite thing to cook

[angiehoggett]

Risotto - it's such a basic thing but you can add so many flavours to it to make it very different!

[Blahblahblueblee]

Classic roast dinner with Yorkshire puddings!
Lasagne with salad would be up there for me too.
For desert crumble, BlackBerry and apple maybe?

[CatRash]

Toad in the hole or lasagna

[lolamia91]

sausage and mash forever!

[Anj123]

My classic recipe which always goes down well in my household is salmon cooked in parcels with soy sauce, honey and pak choi, served with sliced potatoes. Simple yet delicious! And healthy!

[diamantegal]

Can't beat a family roast. Although our other family favourite is slow cooked lamb shanks, which has the added benefit of being able to batch cook and freeze!

[Sazzle1984]

It has to be chilli for me.

[Hatemyjob2]

Cottage pie with peas :)
Although I have been topping it with spiralised sweet potato lately to ring the changes

[Sounbelievablydull]

Coq au vin so lovely! I get it ready for a Friday night dinner bottle of something bubbly beforehand then the ultimate comfort food to follow lots of mushrooms included !!
Perfect - sometimes even knock together a Black Forest gateaux inspired cheesecake to follow!
It's like the 1970s all over again but without the power cuts !!!

[angstinabaggyjumper]

Pasta e Ceci.

[CordeliaScott]

I love a good fish pie with prawns and eggs in. Mmm. Pudding wise it has to be bread and butter pudding. They both remind me of being little.

[Spink]

I keep changing my
Mind about this.. but think Coq an Vin wins it. With a Cherry pie a la mode on the side. (Involuntary dribbling happening here now)

[agnapoop]

My favourite classic recipe is homemade lasagne. If i ever feel down i seem to crave it.

[henbane]

Bread & Butter pudding - with lots of nutmeg! It was always a favourite with the kids but my current partner doesn't like it so I only have it now when we're eating out & it's on the menu

[jammy388]

Apple pie - have never found one that resembles my grandmother's though.

[user1490448011]

My favourite winter type of comfort food has to be a nice bowl of soup with soda scones and then for afterwards it's oven baked rice pudding with generous helping of nutmeg and sultanas through it as it bakes then it's even more sinful as i pour over a drizzle of fresh cream...mmm yummy scrummy and a happy tummy for all:)
