Favourite Leftovers

bubble and squeak

Bubble and Squeak tip: If you indulge in sprouts and chestnuts at Christmas (or any time), the left overs make great bubble and squeak, the chestnuts just add a nuttiness and sweetness...

cold lentil soup on toast is a fave of mine

homemade lentil soup turns into vegetarian pate

Spicy stuff definitely improves (curries, chillies etc)... cold pizzas OK... but there's seldom any leftovers in our house...

Another vote for sausages - I prefer them cold to hot.

Other things that I think are better cold are custard, rice pudding, pastry and christmas pudding. Roast spuds are just as good cold as hot.

I did a food safety course, they said it's about storeage, if you keep it in the fridge overnight ok, if you leave it out you can get nasty food poisoning:

During my student days the left-over kebab or curry never used to find the fridge....

... and somehow I live to tell the tale! I think the flavours developed well whilst it was left out too!


Never eat leftovers straight from the fridge I say... let them get to room temperature for optimal filthy eating pleasure
