Gourmet Bubble and squeak

What food would you say is your specialty?

Hmm..

Me a speciality?

There’s just stuff I can make.

Perhaps I should develop one

How bout bubble and squeak?


Perfect the dish and specialise

Become the best there is.

Perhaps a secret gourmet twist

To good old bubble and squeak.


Perhaps you‘re not familiar

With this brilliant dish

You make it with the left overs

Serve it with cold meat.


You mix cold mash potatoes

With cabbage or sliced sprouts

Bang it in a frying pan

And fry the whole lot up.


You fry it till it’s good and dry

You turn the burnt bits in

Get it crispy, flavourful

Then turn it out the pan.


I don’t know bout the gourmet bit

I guess it’s in the oil

Something posh, goose fat perhaps

And other stuff like Kale.


Sadly I’m no brilliant cook

Will probably mess it up

But if I need a specialty

Best be a simple one.

My speciality! Messing Up.

What food would you say is your specialty?

My speciality‘s messing up

I’ve done it once again!

Yet again I spoiled the bread

I thought I‘d added yeast.


It doesn’t look as if I did

Or maybe not enough.

It’s getting well beyond a joke

I know my wife won’t laugh!


I make mistakes,

keep losing things

I think I always have

But worryingly

It’s getting worse

I’m not right in my head.
