Rate my fish finger sarnie..

[User169]

A fish finger BUTTY is as thus...

1. Take 2 slices of Warburtons Super Toasty
2. Butter (NOT Marj!) both pieces lavishly and to the edges.
3. Take well cooked fish fingers (Findus obvs) straight from the grill and place on buttered bread. (Thus achieving the melted butter effect)
4. Position aforementioned batonnet de poissons (thats for you southerners) longitudaly with the tips pointing towards the crust.
5. Slice in a transverse manner thus cutting the fish fingers in half.
6. Eat immediately, unsullied by any condoments whatsover.

Between 4 and 5 - give the sandwich a firm squish so the fingers just start to beak up.

Minus points for the bread. For preference a tortilla wrap, not a yeasted loaf. At a pinch a malty brown.

Minus points for the ketchup. Tartare sauce for preference, but a fish finger wrap is the one occasion where salad cream is acceptable.

Minus points for the lack of something green. Crushed garden peas or pea shoots are good, mushy peas acceptable and lettuce tolerable. But you need something for contrast.

Lose all remaining points for a mug of tea. Beer, yes. Water if you're not feeling like drinking. But there's only one fit place for a mug of strong tea, and it has a plughole at the bottom.

Good idea. I suggest using the rear wheels of a heavily laden 4x4, then either leaving it for the wildlife, or feeding it to your dog.

A human body?

Or, is it an unusually large sandwich?

Correct

Soaked into the bread

Let me get this straight..
Apart from the fish fingers, bread, sauce choice, teapot and decor, (MrsPete has your addresses and is on her way to sort ya'll out in alphabetical order.. be afraid, very afraid! ) everything is just fine and dandy then?

The last time I had a fish finger sandwich I commented on the scarcity and quality of the fish fingers only to be told to stop complaining as what I had was 'The Omega Three'

Yeah, because no one put something between two slices of bread before a posh person did it.
