Saveloy sausages are a British classic with their distinctive lipstick-red casing and I can personally testify that they are very tasty.

Odd British Recipes – Where are They From?
In Grandads Cookbook I like to showcase traditional British recipes like Fish and Chips, Pie and Mash or Toad in the Hole.
Chip Butty
The humble chip butty is basically a buttered white bread sandwich of chunky chips usually with tomato or brown sauce.
Clootie Pudding
Clootie pudding is a traditional Scottish dessert to follow the haggis, neeps and tatties on Burn’s night.
Cullen Skink
Cullen skink is a thick Scottish soup made with smoked haddock, potatoes and onions. The name originates from Cullen in Moray, Scotland.
Haggis, Neeps and Tatties with Whiskey Sauce
Burns night in Scotland would not be complete without a plate of haggis neeps and tatties and a side of whiskey sauce.
Stargazey Pie
This traditional Cornish dish is so named because the fish heads poke through the pastry crust and appear to be gazing at the stars. But don’t worry, you don’t eat the heads.
Spotted Dick and Custard
Spotted dick is one of those cleverly disguised British recipes where the name bears no relation whatsoever to the food created.
Mediterranean Cod en Papillote
Cod en papillote simply means “in parchment”. This is a really easy style of cooking fish especially if you are not confident with fish in the kitchen.
Yorkshire Puddings
A very versatile dish, Yorkshires can be a starter, side or even a main dish like Toad in the Hole. Giant ones can contain the entire meal!
