CHRISNOIR

Northern chippy-chips with gravy are a thing of beauty*.

Get thasen some chips and gravy, lad...

Defintely a blend of mayo and horseradish or mustard with liberal grindings of fresh, black pepper. Failing that Encona chilli sauce or possibly garlic mayo (mixed with horseradish or mustard). Oh and the mustard has to be Colmans. Can't stand that vinegary French crap. In fact I hate vinegar.

In Plymouth about 8 years ago I bought chips and they put grated cheese over the top and melted it.

It was very nice. Had it again a few years later in Camden - after a drunken Fall gig.

I've had gravy on me chips once - when I was in Macclesfield. Very nice! Very nice chips in Macclesfield, I have to say. I believe that there are chippies in London that do gravy - must remember to give it another go.

WTF is it peanut day or something? Bad enough in a sarnie but to put the stuff on chips too. Come on fellahs, sort yourselves out .

Brown sauce....even the cheap brands seem ok but HP or Daddies are the best. Vaery rarely have ketchup these days. BBQ sauce is also becomming popular....

Tom ketchup is spawn of the devil, although apparently it's quite good at preventing prostate cancer...

I always thought I was missing the joke with that. But, you really do put gravy on your chips. I must try this regional delicacy next time I venture North of Watford. Peas too you say, would they be of the pre masticated and mushy variety?

Yep we sure do with loads of salt and extra vinegar.
THe type of peas depends where you go to round here they are always homemade ( soaked from dry) marrowfats or mushy

Mmmm, chips & cheese! Used to get that regularly when at uni in Edinburgh. Failing that (or sometimes in addition to!) I'd add mayo. Nyum nyum.

My family have been running Fish & Chip shops since 1974. My Dad bless is him frying Fish & Chips for the good people of Leicester as we speak. As is my uncle in our other shop.

I therefore consider myself an expert in the subject of chips.

The best chips come from a traditional chip shop. Not a fast food chain such as the golden arches, or elsewhere. They should have plenty salt & vinegar, and thats it. At a push I would say a bit of ketchup (Daddies only) or on a tray with curry sauce or mushy peas. Anything else is wrong.

If the chips are frozen and cooked in the oven, such as you would eat at home or with a pub meal then Mayo is ok. But with real chips from a chip shop? No way!

I like all the above, but..........there is only one sauce above all others..........HP!!!!!

Poutine. It's a (french) canadian delicacy, eh? Check it out:

ps - It's way better than it looks/sounds.

Thai chilli sauce for me.

Just realised

Mayonnaise on Frites

Salt and vinegar on proper chips (fired in beef dripping).

(Actually mayo is pretty good on those too...)

I found a sauce the other day called Cholula. Hot and tangy it is and superb on chips.
