Scottish bar serves up deep-fried BUTTER
20th December 2011[/align]
It's been dubbed a 'coronary on a plate' and is unlikely to be found on any fine-dining menu. But chefs at one Edinburgh bar are confident their calorie-drenched answer to the deep-fried Mars bar - battered butter balls - will be a real hit with the customers. Already popular in the US, the dessert has been given a Scottish twist by cooking the balls in Irn Bru batter.
The Fiddler's Elbow is serving the pudding for what is thought to be the first time in Scotland. Called Braveheart Butter Bombs, the pudding is accompanied with an Irn Bru ice cream and coulis. A variation featuring whisky batter instead of Irn Bru will also be offered.
While critics have dubbed deep-fried butter a 'coronary on a plate', the chefs said it should be all right in moderation. Mr Robertson said: 'We thought we'd add a bit of fun to our menu of Scottish dishes and it's really got people talking. Some folk are saying it's a heart attack on a plate and, okay, it's not exactly health food but as long as you're not having it every day it shouldn't be any problem.'
The dessert is made by freezing balls of butter before dipping them in batter soaked with Irn Bru. These are then submerged in bubbling hot oil until browned. Oliver Scott, who runs The Fiddler's Elbow, said: 'It might not be too nutritious but it's definitely delicious. We've been trying it out on volunteers who are loving it. It actually tastes lighter than you'd expect, it's a bit like eating a banana fritter but nicer and obviously a bit naughtier. We hope it will help cheer people up in a time of gloom.
'We know that when things are tough economically people like to treat themselves to a little comfort food and this is the ultimate indulgence - so long as people don't overdo it.'

I've seen one place that sold them - but they stopped a few years back.

‘Britain’s biggest’ Christmas sandwich contains one kilo of Turkey
21 Dec 2012[/align]
Anyone looking for an alternative Christmas dinner this year could opt for ‘Britain’s biggest’ festive sandwich, which reportedly contains a kilo of turkey. The massive butty has a healthy helping of all your Christmas lunch favourites, including potatoes, sprouts, six carrots, six parsnips and eight sausages wrapped in bacon. Everything is kept together in a 800g crusty loaf.
The monster treat, which was created by chef Richard Hollis, is served beside a container of cranberry sauce and a large helping of stuffing. If that wasn’t enough, which it really should be, the enormous butty also comes with a 450g Christmas pudding and a huge pint-and-a-half serving of tea.
With the amount of calories in this meal we doubt anyone that consumes it will be celebrating many more festive seasons.
