QUICK AND EASY TRADITIONAL BUBBLE AND SQUEAK DISH
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat and make sure it doesn't brown. Add the finely chopped onion and fry gently for about 3 minutes or until soft and translucent.
- Turn the heat up ever so slightly and add the mashed potato and all of the chopped-up leftover vegetables. Add the chopped meat if using. Fry for at least 10 minutes, turning everything over continuously in the melted butter to ensure that the potato and vegetables are thoroughly reheated. You are also aiming to brown (but not burn) the outside edges of the vegetables, so occasionally press the mixture into the pan to brown a little before turning.
- Finally, when the mixture is heated right through, give the vegetables one long final press onto the base of the pan with a spatula and leave to cook for 1 minute. Flip over and repeat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve with either a fried or poached egg on top. Enjoy.

BUBBLE AND SQUEAK
Each year at Christmas, I make sure I have leftovers to make this bubble and squeak on Boxing Day. I like to serve it with cold turkey and salad. This version can be made any time of year, and it's also good served at brunch with sausages. I find it helpful to use an ice cream scoop to divide the potato mixture into portions before flattening them. -Tanya Aggett, Toronto, Ontario

BUBBLE 'N' SQUEAK II
Not sure about the name but the dish is delicious. A simple dish of cabbage and noodles, but don't try to substitute butter, it's not as good. Try it with 1/2 pound of pastrami or corned beef cooked in.
