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 )

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
