  • Such kultural no-ledge from the Aussie

    Its regional, you get 'brown sauce' (the recipe is a 'secret') on your chips in most chippers, but mainly in the central belt, Fife etc.

    My wife is fae Fife and if I gave her chips without salt and sauce, I would be very dead

    Cheese and Gravy was what Aberdeen and Dundee seemed to favor in my experience, but my local in Dunkeld does everything.

    Its Scotland at the end of the day, you can get almost anything battered, fried and then covered in what ever sauce you want.

    I favour brown sauce, vinegar , salt and mushy peas, but that's because my chip shop culture is a British mish-mash

    cultural debate unleashed

  • Not brown sauce, though, actual gravy? Brown sauce (bottled) is gross (ok, it's maybe ok). There's a chippy a bit of a walk from Manch velodrome that has this evil dark looking shit that's been bubbling away in a pot for a millennia that I quite adore. Vinegar can fuck off. Salt is grand. Mushy peas I can take or leave.

  • Everything is a bit of a walk from that velodrome.

    Sounds like the gravy we had on everything at dinner at school.

    Its not HP sauce, or brown sauce per se, its normally made up in the chipper. For max effect its often served from a glass Bru bottle with a hole in the tin lid.
