The Indo has a feature today on guilty pleasure food. They’ve asked a number of food writers, chefs and two of our favourite food bloggers: Donal of Good Mood Food and Val of Val’s Kitchen.
Donal flies the flag for bacon fries and waffles:
Nothing can satisfy my craving for junk food more than Bacon Fries: they are crunchy, salty, highly calorific and never fail to hit the spot. My other weakness is a little dish I came up with when I was a kid and it seems to have stayed with me: take one nice golden potato waffle, place three crispy fish fingers uniformly lined up on top, drench with Heinz tomato ketchup, and top with another waffle. There you have it — the Waffle Fish Finger sandwich. A classic!
I had Bacon Fries in the pub last night for the first time in ages: they are incredible. Donal is so wise. And Val, like many of us, is a sucker for a doner kebab:
I have considered selling my soul for a sausage roll, or a peanut butter Chunky Kit Kat. My guiltiest pleasure has to be having a doner kebab any time, day or night.
I have been known to drive to a certain kebab place in Limerick, dressed up to the nines and wait in line for my take away. The more chilli sauce and the messier it is, the better.
What’s your favourite guilty pleasure?
