Irish cookingMany years ago I worked on a building site with a bunch of paddies and they were gastronomic giants of men. Their idea of a meal was to use an inverted dustbin lid as a frying pan with a pack of lard thrown in along with 3-4lb of bacon and a dozen eggs. The resulting mess would just be divided evenly amongst them. Tea was made in a steel bucket with a pound of tea 2lb of sugar and a couple of quarts of milk all boiled up over a brazier. Strangely enough the tea and the fryup actually tasted great!
