What is your favorite simple food?

[XmisterIS]

Nothing complicated is allowed, just a simple dish that can be cooked at home and has no more than 3 ingredients.

For me it's a toss-up between asparagus with olive oil and salt, or corn on the cob with butter and salt.

 

[andylaw79]

Pasta with smoled bacon and a big dollop of cream cheese with herbs melted in. Delicious:-)

 

[Zoiders]

Lard.

 

[citybabe]

I'd say mine would be soft cheese, salami and fresh bread

 

[colly]

Bangers and mash with onions. (gravy too I suppose)

If a little bit more complicated it would be steak pie with chips and gravy and maybe peas.

 

[Davidc]

Fruit salad.

(consider as 1 ingredient - fruit, or it's possible to keep it down to 3 fruits if I try hard).

 

[accountantpete]

Egg & Chips with buttered bread.

Thueringer Bratwurst & Senf & Broetchen

Ideally grilled over charcoal, served with German Mustard and Roll - the only one!!

German Deli in Southwark stocks them, but I don't think they are the originals....

 

[dan_bo]

Poached egg on a buttered crumpet.

Or plain basmati cooked in chicken stock on its own.

 

[Arch]

Anything on toast.

 

[scots_lass]

Mince and tatties!

 

[Fiona N]

Toasted sourdough bread with cold salted butter

or a bit more sophisticated (maybe) toasted sourdough, homemade basil pesto, soft boiled egg on top

 

[4F]

Cheese on toast

Fish and Chips is only three ingredients: fish, flour and potatoes.
Okay, you'll need oil, water, salt, vinegar + bicarb (in the batter). But they're not really main ingredients.

Beans on Toast + Poached egg on top,
Mushroom risotto: rice, mushrooms, cheese - though it's nicer with onion, butter.
