But the problem here is not the dish itself. It's the person serving it. An omelette (or and omelet for that matter) and a frittata, are not the same dish, and where I grew up (overseas) neither one is posh. If I asked for a frittata and got an omelette, I would be really disappointed. Anyone who is serving a frittata as 'poshified' omelette really has no culinary understanding of either one, and is probably just a twit. Saying a frittata is posh omelette would be like insisting that beef wellington is a posh meat pudding. Indeed, though they have similar ingredients, the dishes are different. It's the person who is poncified, not the dish.

Spanish omelette has to have potatoes with the eggs (and generally onions), frittata doesn't have to have potatoes/onions. Frittata can have anything with the eggs. It should be finished in the oven, whereas sp omelette should be fried on both sides.


Sp omelette and frittata differ from a standard omelette in that they have ingredients mixed throughout the eggs, whereas omelette is folded over the ingredients.

Given my Spanish connections Mick, I'd love to know where that story came from.

Given that it's highly unlikely the spud was a staple part of Irish or any European agriculture at the time of the Armada I think it's one of those folklore stories that aren't remotely true ( see also the L

Elfante de Castile )

      Two tier PIP

      By Spartacus · Posted

      @HeadNun I haven't been through the assessment for mental health issues, god knows they treat you like you have one when you are assessed for motability issues. Therefore I can't comment on what you've read but don't always believe what the media telks you as they often sensationalise things to sell papers and bend the story slightly 😉  All I am doing in this thread is asking people who disagree to the PIP reform in its current format to write to their MP to say so and ask for a well consulted and thought through change. I'm not here to change people's minds but happy to discuss how disability impacts lives.

      I hate the idea of someone with a genuine disability losing money, it's heart-breaking. I thought the whole idea of these cuts was to get kids with mental health issues, which we used to call 'the human condition', off benefits and into a job. Before anyone says anything, I'm not talking about people with severe autism.  If the tests are so astringent, Spartacus, how come healthy youngsters with anxiety are getting benefits? It's ludicrous.  This from The Times:  Then there is mental health. This is the fastest-growing category of claim; anxiety and depression is now the single biggest reason to claim PIPs, accounting for 16 per cent of spending. Including problems such as autism and ADHD, there are 1.4 million people claiming for “psychiatric disorders”, almost 40 per cent of the total.   NHS figures on Thursday found that 23 per cent of people of working age now have a mental disorder, up from 18 per cent a decade ago, rising to 26 per cent in 16 to 24 year-olds. Young people are most likely to claim benefits for mental health problems and there is growing concern about a generation who may do so for decades. The number of children on disability living allowance, the precursor to PIPs, will reach a million by the end of the decade, double pre-Covid levels. Most of these are for behavioural problems such as ADHD or learning disabilities
