That looks delicious! My granny in Paisley would make Stovies for me & my brothers when we visited from Canada. I sure miss the grub in Scotland atm. Slainte 🥃
My dad was from Scotland and I went in my early thirties to go live in the UK with no intention of coming back. I love all of this food as my dad made it and my grandmother made it. It became home and I miss it dearly as my mother passed away a couple of months ago so I have no living family members and no close friends. It was so easy to make friends back there now I said in America very unhappily so. I need to check into the independently wealthy category at the home office and what it requires. I have an inheritance and I would like to purchase a single story home. I had to come back to America and I live in the top of New England so it's not like there aren't British people around. There were unforeseen circumstances that brought me back and then I didn't want to leave until my mother had passed away because she was alone.
Also if u wanna keep most of the water to keep flavour place a couple slices of dry bread on an it will soak up the fat but don't leave them once they have done there job remove them if need use another slice .... looks nice good job dude best recipe yet I've seen
It's a job to get Lorne Sausage in the south but it works well with beef sausages you skin them and break them up into pieces. I haven't tried adding thyme though, I think I'll give that a go next time. 👍
@@Doug-vo1xm yes I was offered a number of my favourite scots butchery items less than a week ago. But nine months ago a search provided no results. I suspect the pandemic is responsible for the expansion in the Internet food market.
@walterjunovich6180 yeah it's similar to a stew. But thicker texture. Very old Scottish dish. Different parts of Scotland make it slightly different, but usually always the same kind of ingredients
From the French verb « étouffer ». Which means smother, ie you cook the potatoes in a pan without water, they have enough moisture from the onions you fry in heavy pan with butter and garlic, before adding the chopped potatoes. , very good with sausages.
Alrite dude tip as s chef add fresh herbs at the end or you boil all flavour out if u wanna add first add dry thyme 👍🏿 try it you notice the difference
"No right or wrong way to make stovies!" I wish a dozen other YT "cooks" would learn that. Just fed up with pedants declaring that any method but theirs is "wrong." This way is as good a way as any. If you don't like it, there are other ways. My Gran taught me how to make stovies - and it was from whatever was in the larder. Or what was left in the larder as often as not - and that included any leftovers from other meals. Absolutely nothing safely edible was ever thrown out. What you didn't eat at one meal was served up - in one guise or another - at the next. She used to say "Ride a day on a horse and you'll get another way of making things!" People just did the best they could with what they had. An older generation would have laughed at the very idea of a recipe for stovies. If I was banqueting with the Queen, I'd ask if they had stovies. Cheers mate. Keep up this stuff.
@@jamesbmedia8996 Might be because I'm half Irish and couldn't face life without tatties, but when I think of stovies, I don't just get hungry - I get withdrawal symptoms. 😉
It can be, sometimes. I've known my late gran make stovies with half an onion, a potato, and a single slice of corned beef. Enough for me - she tended to be coincidentally not hungry. In better days she used the best she could get - beef or sausage. If she had the money, she never stinted on food. Gran made the best stovies (didn't everyone's?) and would sometimes apologise with "Mair tatties than meat wee man!" She wasn't always talking about stovies.
Finally a proper pot of stovies with square sausage
Thank you 🙏 beautiful ❤️ I'm going to cook Scottish stovies.
I have to try stovies and get the recipe so I can make it here in America.

Thanks Sharon. I bet your Granny makes them better than me tho. Grannys and grandads always made the best stovies 😊 .
Thanks for watching

That is just pure comfort food on a plate.

Adams Eats cheers man. Some of the most easiest dishes are the tastiest lol

You can easily get them online....

That looks awesome but what was that dark spice you added at the end? You speak kind of fast and I couldnt catch up.
Hi Lara. It was just a touch of grounded black pepper
@@jamesbmedia8996 I thought she was referring to the OXO cube you crumbled in.🤣
@@nigeldavey1043 hahha you could be right nigel. Well spotted

I always thought stovies was just tatties...
