Bubble and squeak?

chillidoggy

What’s the definitive?

Or indeed IS there a definitive version?

Sassafras

Only use organic bubbles.

Generally whatever left over veg you have, but I would say must include, potato, carrot, onion cabbage as a minimum.   Left over roast spuds work well chopped or lightly mashed with the rest of the veg and with and egg to bind.   Cook in oil and butter for as long as possible.  Some caramelisation of the onion is desirable.   Anything else you have at hand to throw in is a bonus.   Spouts work particularly well.

I pile in everything leftover from a roast dinner and it always seems to taste good. Roast potatoes, all veg, yorkshire puddings, stuffing the lot. Pour in leftover gravy into a big mixing bowl and chill overnight. Next day I chop it all up with a sharp knife and fork, add generous amounts of salt & pepper and then fry a thick panful in frying pan slowly for ages and turn it over frequently mixing in the burnt crispy bottom. Lovely!

Sounds like a dry stew to me..

Leftover gravy? That's just wrong.

Make it properly and leftover gravy is a delight

must have burnt bits.

I tend to mash mine all up and form it into a kinda loose patty. not too mashed though, it needs some texture.

anything can go in it, but please not kale!!   

I have also been known to include shredded yorkshire pudding in it

this mornings was roast potatoes, carrot, broccoli and sprouts with an unhealthy amount of butter, salt and pepper mixed in before it was mashed and fried

Anything really as long as it's potato based.

My mother would do the Sunday roast and set aside potato and veg and gravy and meat that became Monday night bubble and squeak.

I thinking fried onion is a prerequisite here?

Not in our house there isn’t. My wife drinks any leftover gravy out of the jug. And I always thought she was a posh bird.

If she was posh she'd be drinking it out of a gravy boat.

how very dare the French accuse our cuisine as bland and tasteless when we have such clever culinary delicacies as Toad in the Hole and Bubbles...!

I seem to remember from school  Napoleons favourite breakfast was fried potatoes onions and garlic.  Halfway towards a good bubble & squeak

  It’s one I often do in honour of my French heritage (pre1066).  

 Chuck in some chunks of chorizo and/or bacon and serve with some hot sauce and a fried egg.... then it truly is the breakfast of Emperors
