What's your favourite takeaway meal?

A Thai green chicken curry is my absolute fave takeaway.

LeBash · 10-01-2021 11:29am

Salt and chilli spare ribs (on the bone) and a beef in black bean sauce with a mixed veg instead of rice.

I have a donor kebab recipe cooking away in the slow cooker may be as good as the local chipper which is one of my favourites along with chips, cheese and runny garlic.

A good curry cheese chips gives me sexual pleasure!!

Curry is amazing with almost anything but cheese is one of the things that should never go with curry, its like mixing curry and chocolate

salmocab · 10-01-2021 12:00pm

It’s a mood thing
Lamb madras, pilau and naan.
Love a good old chicken curry from the Chinese
Cod and Chips but can be hit and miss depending on the batter.
Local chipper does really good pizza

meggiemegmeg · 10-01-2021 12:12pm

Thai green curry, veggie & cashew nut. Love it.
And from the chipper-a hape of big, thick chips, loads of salt & vinegar. And tea.

As a genuine carbonsra has no cream in it that may be what they are getting at.

Eh... classic Italian carbonara is mostly cream. With ham, cheddar cheese, mushrooms, sweetcorn, peas etc... :rolleyes:

I normally order a tub of curry to put over a chow mein. Very tasty.

Yes. Want that too.

Tony H · 10-01-2021 3:02pm

chicken chow mein , with chicken curry and fried rice , preceded by and accompanied by cold bottles of Heineken , haven't had it in years because of stomach issues (not caused by this kind of diet ) but I'd kill for one now from the old Yangtze River in Barrack Street in Cork (long closed) .

McGinniesta · 10-01-2021 3:48pm

Chipper chips and batch loaf.

That's my all time favourite too.. sometimes I throw in a tub of sour cream to give it a more Italian edge.

djivide_ · 10-01-2021 4:16pm

some poppadoms with mango dip.
lamb jalfrezi / bhuna
I do like mushroom rice but normally just get pulau as it comes with the main.
and the most important part keema Naan, hands down the best naan in my opinion.

Can’t understand the love for pizza.
It’s not bad but it’s the kind of thing I’d be eating while I’m waiting on my dinner to cook.
It’s not a meal to me.

branie2 · 10-01-2021 4:45pm

Plain cheeseburger and chips

I always assumed I was the only one that thought that. You’d be stuffed after one but still feel like you hadn’t had your dinner yet.

Any takeaway is good for me as it's a night off cooking

However, the default here is Apache; usually the deal where you get a large pizza, chips, chicken dippers and garlic bread.

silvervixen84 · 10-01-2021 6:38pm

I live in London and haven't been home since Dec 2019 but I guarantee that one of the first things I do when I eventually come home for a visit is to get a breast in a bun with garlic & cheese chips. There's a place in my home town that is unreal, but the ultimate is Hillbilly's or John Graces in Cork city.

I convinced my local kebab shop over here to make me garlic & cheese chips which are great, but it's still not the same as back home.

Nice.

For me I throw in some lasagne sauce. 1 pint of Lasagne sauce to 4 pints of cream. Gives the carbonara a nice edge. Then ham, peas, sweetcorn, mushrooms, diced potato, carrots, turnip.

Sheep Shagger · 10-01-2021 6:54pm

KFC anyone?

If it has to be an old school chipper .....a snack box.

Out of curiosity is there any counties in Ireland without a Supermacs and/or a Mcdonalds ?

Leitrim doesn't appear to have a McDonalds from what Google shows.

I'm fairly sure there is no Supermacs anywhere in either Wicklow nor Cavan (Supermacs tends to be a euro or 2 more expensive for a meal than the other chains. Which probably explains its absence from Cavan :pac::pac::pac: )

As a teenager, circa 96 both parents were out working and on a Wednesday we finished school early.

For a month or 2 I was alone in the house mid day and had chipper chips , battered burgerS and salad cream, with a plate of kerry gold sliced brennan's.

When me ma came home at 5 and and asked what I wanted for dinner, my refusal / lack of a need for food sparked questions of drug use or a smell of my breath.

Even now, in my 40s a plate of salty vinegar covered chips , 1 battered burger , 1 sausage , soft white bread covered in kerry gold and a blob of salad cream.......

Heaven on a plate

funkey_monkey · 10-01-2021 8:48pm

Dansak or pathia with pilau rice and a garlic naan.
I sometimes go to the chipper but I always regret it and wish I home cooked it.

Pathia is sadly all too rare in Indian takeaways in Ireland.
