Now a fry-up is a British term which traditionally refers to greasy-spoon-style fried eggs, sausages and bacon and trimmings - I despaired of ever trying it when first travelling in the UK but modern versions are happy to cater for vegetarians and vegans. The bean dish could be a very trendy version of 'baked beans' but would not be recognised on a traditional fry up.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Helen - I love raspberry vinegar on a salad and am almost finished my bottle of the stuff I made in summer so will need to make more next summer. <BR/><BR/>thanks Lysy - E just doesn't appreciate pumpkin like I do - which I put down to him growing up in Scotland where he never ate them<BR/><BR/>thanks AOF - recycling leftovers always seems a great achievement - Leftovers in a soup is one of my favourite ways of using them - this salad would be great heated with some stock!<BR/><BR/>thanks Will - glad the sauce pot has lived to see another day!Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-31222620519008095182008-05-19T16:00:00.000+10:002008-05-19T16:00:00.000+10:00Hi.

No matter how yummy it was the first time it is never quite so exciting to do it all over again the next day - so dismantling and rejigging is my favoured route. Like roast veg with dinner, that can become a blended soup, a salad with lots of fresh herbs and a dressing, a great omelette...(ok I'm getting hungry now!)GShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963643826578219126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-48431176132395504162008-05-19T05:34:00.000+10:002008-05-19T05:34:00.000+10:00What an amazingly well-travelled dish!

I think the pasta incarnation would be my favorite, too.<BR/><BR/>A question I've been meaning to ask for ages and keep forgetting: how exactly would you define "fry-up"? Is it anything that contains fried ingredients for breakfast/brunch? We have no equivalent here. . . and I'm so curious!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
