Sunday dinner thread
So what is everybody having for a Sunday dinner?
Traditional or not, stick it in here.
Today I’m doing Lamb shanks.
The kids are having Chicken.

Re: Sunday dinner thread
Every Saturday afternoon we get chocolate-filled pastries. That's most of the fancy eating all year.
Ross will tell you more about Oliebollen, maybe.

Re: Sunday dinner thread
In Holland do you have what would be considered a traditional Sunday lunch. In the U.K. it would generally mean a roasted meat eg Beef, Chicken, Pork and Lamb with veg and potatoes and Yorkshire pudding with Beef. We don’t have one every Sunday but it is a tradition for many families.

Re: Sunday dinner thread
In certain parts of England dinner can mean what you call lunch and what you call dinner we might call having your tea.
I put dinner to cover all bases. As it happen me and the wife are having the lamb at around 6pm as I’m slow cooking it.

Whenever I went to Greece or Turkey with my family my breakfast consisted of sausages an egg bacon and a pancake, like, more typical English breakfast. And I love it.
We don't usually do anything fancy food-wise except for things like Christmas, New Year's and sometimes also Easter.
We eat oliebollen at New Year's and it's the most devilish sweet food ever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliebol

I don’t mean as in drinking tea.

Re: Sunday dinner thread
So when you eat your roast potatoes and a steak you call it 'having tea'?HalloweenJack wrote: ↑Sun Nov 08, 2020 11:10 amI don’t mean as in drinking tea.

Re: Sunday dinner thread
Morning = breakfast
12 to 2 pm = dinner
4 to 6 pm = tea time
Night time = supper
Anyone who doesn't agree is a pretentious twat.
