Seriously. I'm salavating thinking about them. :rotfl:

You haven't lived until you've had a chip buttie.

Best chip butties are with "real " butter, especially when the chips are so warm they make the butter melt and drip formt he bread lol

Didn't anyone have my problem of the bread going all holey cos the butter was too hard to spread properly? Could end up a messy job but what with the butter being more in lumps you definitely ended up with it all over your hands/top.

Haven't had proper egg and chips for years as I don't have a frier. The last time I attempted chips using an ordinary pan and oil I over cooked them and didnt' have enough potatoes left to do it again. Plus I think a deep fat frier is a safer bet.

If I had one of those though, I would be eating chips every night.

Sometimes I like boiled eggs with chips as soldiers mmmmm!

I own a deep fat fryer, however, my home made chips get more compliments when done in the oven. I just use large baking potatoes, cut into big thick chips and par boil, then coat in hot oil and bung in the oven for 40 mins. I know its a long wait but they are definitely worth it.

you know what else is good? Egg in a cup? Sure its a scottish thing, but you boil eggs, place them in a cup with a huge amount of butter, salt and pepper and mush up. I soo hope eggs are on offer this week!
