Speaker 1: Welcome to the Christian No Can Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Yesterday I had four for the kids. I made for
Speaker 2: tea last night, right, a good classic bangers and mash.
Speaker 3: Oh, we had bangers and mash too last night.
Speaker 4: Do you love a nice midweek bangers and mashes? A tree,
Speaker 4: isn't it? Do you do gravy with it? Oh?
Speaker 3: Yes, an onion gravy?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I fried some onions as well, and I tried
Speaker 2: a new mash recipe yesterday as well that had cheese, milk, garlic,
Speaker 2: and not just garlic. Once you start national, but as
Speaker 2: you're boiling the potatoes, Patsy, you put a spoonful of
Speaker 2: garlic in there as well, with the potatoes there to
Speaker 2: start the garlic process.
Speaker 3: What have you got vampires over that side of town?
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have bayside and some finey chopped spring onions.
Speaker 5: This this is the mash that I needed as a kid,
Speaker 5: because we had bangers and mash every night. My mom
Speaker 5: wasn't home because there was dad's only meal that he
Speaker 5: could do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, just what is it about the old school dad?
Speaker 2: He only had one thing, a terrible spaghetti boling knase,
Speaker 2: which shouldn't even be possible. But he put peas in
Speaker 2: it for some reason. I never want out to this day,
Speaker 2: I mean all over Italy, you know. Now, then you
Speaker 2: put peas in this?
Speaker 5: Well, my dad didn't put anything in the mash it.
Speaker 5: It was just like shrunched up potatoes.
Speaker 4: Suicide. It's so dry. It's something they get in prison
Speaker 4: in movies, is it.
Speaker 5: We had a couple of years where mum was working
Speaker 5: late every night and for every night we had pangs
Speaker 5: the match.
Speaker 4: You know, it's the same thing.
Speaker 2: The only time my dad ever could I think he
Speaker 2: must have good I'm not making this up right. Three
Speaker 2: to five times in my childhood, right was when mum
Speaker 2: was working late, and when I used to dread when
Speaker 2: Mum went, oh, i'll be home later on, like oh god,
Speaker 2: the old man's spag bowl, the flipping peas.
Speaker 4: Why is he put peas in there? I reckon.
Speaker 2: We could make a cookbook, a very slim cookbook of
Speaker 2: your dad's one dish, one meal corn in now? Was
Speaker 2: this you grown up? Wherever mum weren't late, your dad
Speaker 2: would have to step up to the to the stove
Speaker 2: and make.
Speaker 4: His one dish he could do.
Speaker 2: It's always something very basic, I guess, like bang as
Speaker 2: a mash or spag bowl. If that was your day,
Speaker 2: give us a call. What was his one meal that
Speaker 2: he could pull off?
Speaker 1: The Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: Jack, Your dad's one dish was very basic, bangers and mash,
Speaker 5: No flavor in the mashed potatoes.
Speaker 6: You're allowed to have tomato sauce on the sausages.
Speaker 4: And that was it. Gravy loss, gravulous, so just dry.
Speaker 4: For me, it was spaghetti bolognese. But wait with that
Speaker 4: in peace. Yeah, no, it's not an English thing.
Speaker 2: That Isn't it some kind of delicacy where we just
Speaker 2: poured peas in a spank bolt. Nope, just my dad.
Speaker 2: So this morning, what's this you growing up? What was
Speaker 2: your dad's go to dish?
Speaker 4: Damien?
Speaker 7: Good morning morning, here are you going?
Speaker 4: I'm good, Damien? So what was your dad's dish?
Speaker 7: My dad used to do this horrible, horrible stew where
Speaker 7: he would just cut up vegetables, so carrot, he's the tight.
Speaker 7: I trail a bit of hunging in there for five
Speaker 7: and then get the worst beef stew beef you could get.
Speaker 4: It's got chum, that cheap crap you get.
Speaker 6: The butcher was saving it to throw away. To the dogs,
Speaker 6: and your dad goes.
Speaker 2: Just basically the cow's eyes and eyebrows and his bum hoole.
Speaker 8: Past its use by day. Used to throw it in
Speaker 8: the pot and just undercook it.
Speaker 4: So when I met the veggies, they're all that really
Speaker 4: big chunk. They're not die so they're all lumpy, are they?
Speaker 4: No care?
Speaker 6: Cut in half?
Speaker 4: That's it your onion. Your stomach can digest this.
Speaker 8: So it was just it was boiled water and just
Speaker 8: came out of the veggie, and then they put it
Speaker 8: in a bowl and he'd serve it up to and
Speaker 8: enjoy this.
Speaker 4: From some sort of kens in workhouse.
Speaker 8: You sit there and you're like, holy hell, how are
Speaker 8: we going to get take away without the old man
Speaker 8: knowing time you went to be hungry.
Speaker 4: Of course you wouldn't eat that watery broth.
Speaker 8: Yeah, wait for the old man, the fall slaves and
Speaker 8: the cast and then just preach, uh we got through it.
Speaker 2: Yes, well done, you're a survivor. D beautifully told Jim
Speaker 2: when we send your price, Thanks for calling mate.
Speaker 4: That was brilliant.
Speaker 8: Thanks well.
Speaker 1: Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 2: Dads didn't really actually, when I'm honest, now, my dad
Speaker 2: didn't do a huge. You know, he worked very hard,
Speaker 2: but minimalist in turns of almost like a zen light
Speaker 2: budden turns of what he actually did to be involved
Speaker 2: in the running of the house. Now I'm the other
Speaker 2: solar work and actually say he did soddle. Basically, I
Speaker 2: keep saying you had it easy, you had it He
Speaker 2: was probably the prime time to be a dad in
Speaker 2: the seventies and eighties, where my mom would go, I'd
Speaker 2: heard him come home from work, Dad, don't disturb your
Speaker 2: dad for an hour.
Speaker 4: We weren't allowed to bother him for the first hour.
Speaker 2: The moment I get in from this so called job,
Speaker 2: it's on this problem.
Speaker 4: My wife is leaving the houses. I'm just pulling up
Speaker 4: to the house. Is like, see how the cut of
Speaker 4: hours you do with them? Don't know we're asking you.
Speaker 2: Also, like growing up when dad had to cook, did
Speaker 2: you just have that one go to dish that he
Speaker 2: could barely pull off?
Speaker 4: We want to know what was it? Nine four one
Speaker 4: four one o four three? What this would be the
Speaker 4: world's worst cookoo? Wouldn't it red time? Nine seconds?
Speaker 2: Do not finally chop the vegetables and chop some of them,
Speaker 2: just chuck them in that pan?
Speaker 4: Let's go to uh to.
Speaker 2: Me good morning in Christian he matte, I'm good, buddy,
Speaker 2: dance to call the show. What was your dad's one dish?
Speaker 9: Ah? So his dish was a specialty called garch and
Speaker 9: it was so nice. No, it's it's terrible. My sister
Speaker 9: and I happily named it, and they would bothally go
Speaker 9: to the fridge and pull out whatever was going off,
Speaker 9: had mold on it. Think would just be scraped off,
Speaker 9: chopped up roughly and chucked into a pen. Had a
Speaker 9: splash of soy sauce, and that was dinner.
Speaker 6: I'm actually guilty of that.
Speaker 5: Anytime I'm worried that my dishes are good soy sauces.
Speaker 2: It's just a smoke screen for a whole load of food crimes,
Speaker 2: isn't it. You really say, Jamiel, have a good ram
Speaker 2: so then chuck half a bottle of soy sauce on it,
Speaker 2: just mulch it in.
Speaker 4: They don't know you screwed it up earlier.
Speaker 1: It was terrible.
Speaker 9: The only way that we could fix it was by
Speaker 9: getting half a block of cheese and grating it. Trying
Speaker 9: to get something tasty out of it.
Speaker 8: Is terrible.
Speaker 2: That's great, Toby, thank you very much, you killed mate.

Speaker 2: loads of leftover ones going cheap after Halloween.
Speaker 10: No, he just you know, he'd have all these ingredients
Speaker 10: in the fridge or around place in the pantry and
Speaker 10: he just chopped them all up and that was it,
Speaker 10: just put in the pressure cooker for about ten minutes.

Speaker 12: Well, Christian dad's dreadful dish? I would call it was
Speaker 12: lambs for a liver with mashed potatoes. However, it was
Speaker 12: too lazy to pill the potatoes, so that would be
Speaker 12: mixed up in with the match.
Speaker 4: I did that yesterday. I could bother. I thought, these
Speaker 4: are tiny, these skins? Are they? Sure is a bit
Speaker 4: more crunch for these kids.
Speaker 6: What about those nuvitial things that you know, you get
Speaker 6: to know.
Speaker 4: I just mashed it all up and just hope that
Speaker 4: then put sauce to cover.
Speaker 12: So he would put the gravy on top. We'll try
Speaker 12: and hide the flavor. But the gravy was home brands,
Speaker 12: no magic gravy in airhouse, and it tasted life. It
Speaker 12: wasn't mixed properly. So you eating my gravy pear.
Speaker 4: Oh god, do you.
Speaker 2: Remember that it was like flour and like lumpy and not.
Speaker 2: It has to be really warm, doesn't it. Gravies, we'll
Speaker 2: be like Luke tepid.
Speaker 12: Yeah, eat Lance Horizon. Find out it is. Then you're
Speaker 12: eating that gritty tick.
Speaker 2: Too many textures going on, there are there a lot
Speaker 2: of chewing going on.
