Yes, the English way!I'm not convinced that's an extra bowl of plain pasta on the table, I think it's grated cathedral city cheddar cheese. She's grated the block away from the table to avoid us taking the piss out of her
Serving the pasta with a splodge of sauce on top is a very English way of serving it. My mum had never had pasta until she married my dad aged 21. My mum's parents were very English and would eat things like sausage casserole, roast dinner, shepherds pie etc for dinner. My dad's family ate a bigger range of cuisines I suspect influenced from my Grandmother travelling a lot.
So when my dad (rarely) made dinner it would be a homemade sauce with the pasta tossed through. My mum who tried her absolute best served it with supermarket sauce plonked on top
I remember as a child I'd sit and eat all the plain bits around the edge first, so I wonder if Lydia did this as she's so fussy.
I don't know how she can boast about her Italian blood and then post tit like this meal for the masses to see. I am not Italian but am a passionate cook with Italian being my favourite cuisine, and I can see so many "nopes" here!
Definitely cheddar cheese.
Without doubt Lidl doesn't mix the sauce in because she would have to pick the veggies out.
Anybody recall Cawwie making her dinner at her (Cawwie's) house and Lidl picked out the vegetables?
She is only 'growing' them for the 'gram!
