comfort food
Sunday Selections # 726
Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us more often. **Elephant's Child is taking a break for the month of February** Continuing our road trip, today sees us in Snowtown, a small place 100km north of Adelaide. The welcome sign has an original windmill and the new wind power generators which we saw in a recent post along the hilltops for several miles. a painted water tower the infamous "bodies in barrels" bank which is no longer a bank All Bank signage was removed a long time ago an...
Looks good...I'll bet it smells fabulous.
ReplyDeleteA mouth watering feast for the taste buds :-).
ReplyDeleteA friend raised in Switzerland makes this, but bacon for the sausage. Calls it hot burning love. Yumm on it all!
ReplyDeleteHi River,
ReplyDeleteThat looks rather appetising and do I detect carrots or turnip (swede) mixed in with the mash...
All the best and happy writing.
In kindness, Gary
That looks great. I've been thinking about onion gravy lately myself.
ReplyDeleteIs that sweet potato? I love carrots mashed into potato. My nana would often do that. Nowadays I prefer sweet potato though. I think I've eaten too much mashed potato in my life!
The mash and the onion gravy look good. Hold the sausage.
ReplyDeleteComfort food for me is a baked rice pudding. I don't know how long it is since I made one either. Soon.
Oh, that looks so delicious, They don't do a proper sausage in onion gravy over here. Yours looks as good as the ones my Mum makes, and they are the absolute business.
ReplyDeleteYep, very YUM! I like simple tasty food (with lots of chilli)
ReplyDeleteDelores; there's nothing like frying onions to get those tastebuds tingling.
ReplyDeleteWindsmoke; it was mouth watering, by the time it was ready I was really hungry, which makes things taste so much better.
Joanne; over the ast few years I've been cutting back my salt intake and now I find bacon too salty, so rarely eat it anymore.
Klahanie; the mash is potato, carrot, butternut pumpkin and two brussels sprouts halved; all boiled together in the one pot, then mashed.
Sarah; no, I'd forgotten to buy sweet potato, the colour is from pumpkin.
There's no such thing as too much mashed potato.
EC; mmm, rice pudding! I'll have to make one of those soon.
I don't eat sausages much, these ones are the little chipolatas. I cooked four and froze the rest, two were on my plate here, and two were lunch the next day.
Amanda; "over here". Where is "here"?
You'll have to get your mum to teach you her way of doing onion gravy.
Tempo; I can't eat chilli. Tiny amounts now and again, but not on a regular basis. It makes my face burn red and I can feel it swelling like a balloon being blown up, although there isn't any actual swelling.
I would so eat this.
ReplyDeleteI've never had onion gravy, but it looks right up my alley. And the mashed? Yes. That's all I have to say about that: Yes.

Onions ...... I vote for onions as the supreme comfort food. I think I must eat onions every day, either in a salad or stir-fry. Ya hoo
ReplyDeleteRiver, the "here" is currently New Jersey, USA. In a couple of months the here will be in South Australia, as I'm moving back after a 14 year stay over here.
ReplyDeleteI really must get Mum to show me her onion gravy, I didn't do it over here, because the sausages taste different, so I'm not certain they'd go well with the onion gravy. That's an excellent mixed mash too, love the colours and the vege blend.
Pearl; you've never had onion gravy?? You are SO deprived, you'll have to have some asap.
ReplyDeleteManzanita; one of my favourite vegetables, I eat onions a lot more in winter than I do in summer, but an occasional summer dinner is a fried onion sandwich.
Amanda; New Jersey? I'd love to see some photos...Is that where Trenton is? I'm currently reading a series of books where the heroine and most of the action is set in Trenton and there's maention of the Jersey shore.
Don't let the sausages stop you from enjoying onion gravy, it goes well with chops or a steak too.
