Just a note that you can talk about your nanas, nonnas and grandmothers too :-)

Greg makes fried scones for breakfast if he gets the chance. The recipe comes via his Scottish nan Peggy. They are disgusting.

Isn't Google great, in Australia they have Puftaloons which are fried scones
In Scotland they have fried potato scones which sound really niceI will definitely have a go at these unfortunately I am stuck in a winemakers house in Cromwell at the moment, the Korean BBQ made by a Japanese assistant was great but the fried scones will have to wait till I get home

Is there any food the Scots don't fry? ;)

Loads of food memories where family is concerned but one that sticks out was the time Grandmother came to fetch us two kids to Penang for the school holidays. We travelled by train. Cheap tickets meant no allocated seating, and because it was the school holidays, the coaches were packed. The three of us spent the journey sitting atop suitcases in the middle of the carriage. Not terribly comfortable but we didn't starve: Grandma packed chicken stew which she had made, which we ate with sliced white bread. To this day, it's one of my comfort foods.
Grandma's Chicken Stew:
Chicken pieces (bone-in) lightly browned in oil then added to a pot with potatoes, carrots & onion cut into chunks. Simmer covered with minimal liquid (water or stock), and seasoned with ground white pepper, star anise, a generous stick of cinnamon, and light soy sauce. Near the end of cooking, add a can of button mushrooms. Thicken with cornflour if desired.
