Questions and answers

Why do you like battered savs?

Well, I mean who wouldn’t love a battered sav. A battered sav is an iconic Australian food much like a meat pie or a vanilla slice.

At a takeaway, what will you also get with a battered sav?

I like getting potato scallops. Deep fried battered slices of par-cooked spud is a wonderful thing. I’m not sure if other countries do a potato scallop, but I know they are popular throughout most of Australia. They may be called other names in Victoria and other places, but if you say potato scallop, most people know what you’re talking about if you’re in a fish and chip shop.

The battered sav according to Roy and HG

 

If you want more from Roy and HJ check out their new podcast. I listen to them every Saturday evening.

Why the Kim chi?

I was describing the food challenge to a friend at Canberra Hospital and Health Services on Friday and she suggested Kim chi rather than sauerkraut.

  1. As always, my taste buds are in a state of amazed confusion. The battered sav thing I get, it’s all those other tastes that have me intrigued & pretty desperate to try, I mean…. what would all those tastes “taste like” …. you got me thinking Gary.

  2. The battered sausage is beloved of Scots too, though our version isn’t as fancy as this. They certainly look delicious.

    1. Wow, Emma, I never knew that. I did know that the Scots love to deep fry, but there you go. I liked these Kransky battered savs, but now I’ve done it I’m not sure I’ll do it again.

  3. Dipping it twice sounds VERY intriguing!! I love your wording…How to make food sexy. hmmm, are these an aphrodisiac?

  4. I’ve never actually had a battered sav. It looks appetising I must say. I’m not sure if it’s something that you commonly find around, because I have never seen it in food courts or even in the frozen section of Woolies or Coles. Or maybe it’s a Canberra. I really don’t know 😀
