    Roast beef with yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes and veggies dripping in gravy - nobody does it quiet like her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭tishiewishie


    Love my mams Stew, it's the best!! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,362 ✭✭✭Sergeant


    Bacon and Cabbage with them really floury potatoes that you can only seem to get in Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭Cool_CM


    Irish Stew. Only Irish mothers can make it for some reason. Everything else is inferior!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,992 ✭✭✭Korvanica


    Roast Chicken, Mashed Spuds, Stuffing , Gravy and mashed carrot & parsnips...

    Yum


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 765 ✭✭✭yungwan


    Mince stew, homemade burgers, chicken stew and veg lasanga.

    Luckily Im preyty nifty in the kitchen so I can cook all these myself and have now become my sons favs.

    But there is nothing like someone else cooking for you!

    Ah your dead right man that **** is epic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    I suppose its any of the dinners that require more than 10 minutes preparation that ya can't be bothered to do yourself.

    Ribs n cabbage
    Roast stuffed chicken/turkey
    Honey glazed ham
    Beef Stew


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    Stuffed rolled loin of pork with her fluffy mash, apple sauce and carrots, so good. Oh and her chicken liver pate for starter.

    Her desserts are the best bit, profiteroles, apple tart, chocolate raspberry cake, pear & blackberry tart...the joys of having a Mom who was a chef in our family hotel! :)

    Hated my mum's cooking unfortunately. My Dad was a way better cook! Loved his Sunday Roast. Still can't get my roast potatoes as crispy as his!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,163 ✭✭✭smk89


    Shepards Pie made with gravy, not soup as my housemate used to do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,130 ✭✭✭✭Kiera

    Shepherd's Pie.

    Fúck me, we agree on something!
    My technique is to make a sambo, then put it aside and leave it to last. Delicious:D

    Also, stew. Yum yum yum!!!
    Same technique as above.
    These are the only 2 dinners i eat bread with!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    Lasagne, curry and chicken Mary Land are the tops, but my mam used to be a chef so we get good cooking in this house. My dad's a brilliant cook too. I prefer his Sunday roasts. (Just don't tell my mam...)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,357 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Whats Coddle........


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,731 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Some slow roast casserole thing whose name escapes me. It's probably the only thing she can cook better than me :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 141 ✭✭George83


    My mam is a terrible cook and hardly ever made it into the kitchen to attempt to cook anything. Thankfully my dad is a great cook and I loved cooking from an earlyish age.

    I'm so hungry after reading this thread.

    An ex girlfriend's mothers Chicken Curry... OMG it was outstanding!!! Missed the curry and her mother's cooking more than her went we broke up :D:)

    Irish dish consisting of layers of roughly sliced pork sausages and rashers (thinly sliced, somewhat fatty back bacon) with sliced potatoes, and onions. Traditionally, it can also include barley.
    Coddle is traditionally associated with Dublin, Ireland.
    The dish is semi-boiled, and semi-steamed in the stock produced by boiling the rashers and sausages. Some traditional recipes favour the addition of a small amount of Guinness to the pot, but this is very rare in modern versions of the recipe.[2] The dish should be cooked in a pot with a well-fitting lid in order to steam the ingredients left uncovered by water.[1] The only seasoning is usually salt, pepper, and occasionally parsley.

    Coddle sounds vile :p

    Little wonder a lot outside Dublin never heard of it, they have taste


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Coddle with a load of fresh Brennan's bread and butter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,746 ✭✭✭✭Misticles

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    The real question is though, brown coddle or white?

    Can't beat a bit of brown.

    Mammy on Toast


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    Oh, roast chicken, roast potatoes, gravy. The effort involved in cooking a roast dinner, I can only be bothered every once in a while but my mum practically does it every night. I miss living at home for her food. Nom nom nom.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 746 ✭✭✭ladypip

    It has the crucial advantage over your cusine in that you don't have to catch, kill and skin the meat in it though.
