Lard with dripping. Sometimes a stale crust or mouldy cabbage leaf. Reminds me of Great Britain.
Lard is dripping, its what we fed our cons on when we shipped them to Oz the country we founded and made up the accent you wannabe Brits are nowrolling on the floor laughing
Bloody hell i just had breakfast/oops that was in the sixties. doh laugh
I am going to cook some hot Lamscurry with Jamaican rice and peas with a light Greek salad mix with goat goat cheese and I am going drink some cold rose wine,

I like to listening to music when I am cooking so today wilbe Bizet The Pearl Fishers.. yay
I thought one was from beef, and the other was from pork. But what would this wannabe soapdodger convict know...
Lmao Bee, you need feeding, come join me for lunch cheers
Fly, that sounds absolutely lush, enjoy the tunes cheers
Although you are right we are descendants of convicts sometimes they stole a loaf of bread wow i wouldve executed them laugh but no Captain Cook was not the first to discover Australia, if you look it up over in Perth theres proof. Now ill say no more but if you google like a cat rolling on the floor laughing wink cheers
Fly, can I ask are you originally Dutch born and bred?
I am descended from convicts (9th generation), though before about the mid 80's when it was less fashionable we were descended from the guards. The loaf of bread thing, is probably also from that era. Robert Hughs wrote an intereting book, possibly pivotal in our acceptance of our convict past.
And no old mate, according to the interwebby thingy dripping is beef and lard is pork, as I suggested.
No Scotty, I am not Dutch. I am a jamaican who lives in Holland.
I was on about Lard Pat lol beer
Oh ok Fly, reason I asked is Im half Dutch and got family there and visit couple of times a yearbeer
Yeah? when you said it was dripping? Meh throwaway comment, but always good to check before having a go.
Hi Van wave
Traditional Sunday Lunch? Hmm.. hmmm Never heard such in my "world". I guess I will have whatever is available for lunch or whatever I can cook. That is if I am not too lazy to do so.. head banger Or simply go out and find something to shut the noises in my stomach up.. laugh
We use to have roast lamb but it got too expensive so chaged to pork roast or chicken with roast patatoes, rice, caramelized sweet potatoes, green beans and a salad. There was always a baked pudding as well. Haven't had a Sunday lunch like that for ages. You need some people to eat it and I am alone most of the time lately.
Kal and elk, wish you both could come on over and join me as its a lot to cook just for myself but will eat more of it again latercheers
Today my lunch was a homemade hot vegetable curry with extra cilantro from my garden and brown rice.

Of course it is not the "traditional" lunch of my country but... I do all sorts.

Tomorrow might be Italian, then Chinese, then French... depending who I´ve invited for dinner? wink
I'll take that for lunch any day daneila, mmm nice wine
I meant to add that there is no meat in those dishes.

How do you fancy a nice ratatouille - French vegetable casserole a la Provincale with plenty of tomatoes, onions, garlic, parsley and... herbs... and also some white wine of course.
Coffee for me, That British Sunday lunch lost its appeal when I moved to paradise.
I will take that as well, also sounds lush danielawine
Fair play to you Map and dont blame you mate, enjoy cheers
Dont want you to miss out, will post you somehandshake
Cheers Man with a van, I dont miss them, I did buy some frozen pre cooked ones and binned them!, Nowadays its fresh asparagus instead, and coffee, coffee grows so its food.professor
I always thought it was 'glazed eyes' for Sunday lunch.
