Emaggie, the best bubble and squeak is at christmas made with 'left over' sprouts, chestnuts and mashed carrot and swede, it is what my family all look forward to most I think!

Bubble and squeak itself is meant to be mashed potato and cabbage mixed together and fried but these days there are some lovely recipes, Tim's look wonderful so I too am awaiting the recipe!

Pip, squeak and wilfred has fried onion in too, wonderful with sausages!

As said -
Bubble and squeak (sometimes just called bubble) is a traditional English dish made with the shallow-fried leftover vegetables from a roast dinner. The chief ingredients are potato and cabbage, but carrots, peas, brussels sprouts, and other vegetables can be added. It is traditionally served with cold meat from the Sunday roast, and pickles. Traditionally the meat was added to the bubble and squeak itself, although nowadays the vegetarian version is more common. The cold chopped vegetables (and cold chopped meat if used) are fried in a pan together with mashed potato until the mixture is well-cooked and brown on the sides. The name is a description of the action and sound made during the cooking process.

I know you know all that, but Pru Leith's is just a version. She uses a leek, & dries out the spuds & cabbage very well to get a crisp finish. They also bind well as cakes. And look nice than a stodgy wodge!
