What are they like?

Always like the look of them on tv but never tried them yet. Tempted tonight, it all depend on how well they cooked?

Just a big slice of fried potato. Makes a nice change from chips. My gran used to par-boil them before frying in dripping, absolutely lush!

My favourite seafood. Melt some butter in pan and fry for 1 min on each side. I like them with prawns and mussels in a stir fry or on top of black pudding as a starter.

Sounds good. is this from the Italian on the marina beginning with a b? Can't remember name but sounds similar and if so it was lush!!

Bolams sell big bags of King scallops for less than a tenner and good value in my eyes. If your a seafood fan I would guess you will like scallops

Not the shite sliced black pudding from supermarkets I hope?

You can get some lovely home made stuff if your prepared to look around, found a few in Leyburn, sliced thickly and warmed through with a pea puree and scallops on, drizzle with prawn oil, mmmm :dance:

Stornoway black pudding is the bollocks (probably literally). Seriously though, it is miles better than any other type I've had. No minging fat globules, but a good mix of oatmeal in there.

I'm not a fan of the stuff they churn out in Bury, it seems inferior quality to me. They're very good at marketing it though.

If you fancy a drive out, Simpson's in Cockfield is probably the best Black Pudding. Lawsons in Bishop is really good too!
