Sounds yummy, but what is it, exactly?

Never mind, it's a pot pie

If you get it from the chippy, is it deep fried?

Sundae · 11-26-2011, 10:00 AM

Ah! Now I know what a pot pie is!
And no, not everything from a chipshop is deep-fried.

Except perhaps in Scotland...

Don't get me wrong.... the thought of a deep fried pot pie makes my mouth water.

The Zicato family is all about dessert - going back several generations. So we had five pies at Thanksgiving.

Two chocolate, one apple, one pumpkin, one pecan.

Pie is not required. You can fake American by eating vast quantities of turkey and dressing. Prolly be some of that string bean/cream of mushroom soup/fried onion rings stuff too. Definitely be some mashed potatoes.

Sure and that'll throw 'em for a loop, eh wot?

Trilby · 11-30-2011, 11:25 AM

Maybe in the UK it would be 'grain casserole' - ?

infinite monkey · 11-30-2011, 12:02 PM

Yeah 'cause of the Corn Laws.

It's like Bopsey Kernels now. Bopsey Kernals on the Rod, great for a heat and eat on the rolling ground kiln, in aluminiminimunium papier, wi' a dab o' clarified potted grease, and a tech of the ol' sodium, eh now.

Sundae · 11-30-2011, 01:05 PM

I looked it up.
So pffft!

Actually it was nothing like I expected.
It's not really a casserole though, is it?

Looks yummy though.
I would wreck that.

I drew a blank on Bopsey Kernels though

infinite monkey · 11-30-2011, 01:22 PM

It is the yum.

I made most of that stuff up.

I dunno about casserole. My sis-in-law's concoction seems like a casserole. It's casserolesque, anyway.

casserole means anything in a casserole dish and threatened with an oven here, Sundae. Dear Americans, casseroles have meat, potatoes and a few veg. maybe. And are usually slow-cooked.
