What is the food or recipe that comes to mind when you think of your mum
Jump to: Newest in thread
My mum makes the best Scouse, but she's such a massive fan of cheese that if I think of a food to link to her that's what it would have to be. She could happily live on crumbly white Cheshire for the rest of her life. |

"Me it's corn beef hash was the best  "
A pan of tayto hash
Rarely corned beef though
'cos it sticks'
So, usually made with leftover brisket from Sunday dinner |

A lot of different meals and cakes etc. My sister who was 12 years older than me. Had cancer. So my mum every fortnight went to stay and look after sisters children. Took in turns with sisters husband mum. My dad could only cook fry ups. So I was taught by my mum to cook.Really had enough of bacon eggs type of meals.Then took over cooking dinners etc while mum at sisters. Must say . I now can cook roasts etc. Even cooking years ago when I was married . Christmas dinner for eight. |

"My Mami used to make this amazing potato and cheese pie thing. We always had it with bubble and squeak and beans one of my favourite teas "
Yes I'd forgotten the cheese and potato pie
The cheese would be like molten lava! |

My mother was a horrible woman one I wish to forget, however my gran on the other hand made the best potato and leek soup, homemade chips and home baking to die for. |

I can't decide, she has so many signature dishes; top five got to be her lasagne, chocolate pudding, treacle toffee (on bonfire night), poormans-pizza, and the fact she'd let me sprinkle sugar on lettuce! |

a village near Haywards Heath in East Sussex |
I loved my mum's cooking as a child but did not realise beef should be pink in the middle and not grey until I started eating away from home in my late teens . |

Apple pie is the first thing that comes to mind, although she cooked all sorts and did it all well. Used to love the Cornish pasties she did with flaky pasty…sooooo good!
Most Sundays she would be baking something and there was ALWAYS a proper Sunday dinner. |

When I think of my ex mother in law I remember her making spaghetti bolognese and she served it without spaghetti or any kind of pasta... just bolognese.
She also over cooked veg for her Sunday dinners and it always amazed me how she could turn cauliflower from white to taupe
