A Greater Manchester chippy has started doing battered chip butties filled with gravy or curry sauce
I need to try one of these
Flounders Fish and Chips in Blackrod has started selling a battered chip butty and customers are going mad for it!
The deep-fried treat will set you back just £2 and is served with either English curry, Chinese curry, gravy or mushy peas.
Staff say the new item is already flying out the deep fat fryer.
Owned by Victoria Flatters for the past eight years, Victoria reckons they are the only chippy in the area to sell the deep-fried treat.
The 50-year-old told the Manchester Evening News: “My daughter sent me a link about a battered and the shop was doing it down south.
“We weren’t sure about it because we thought it would be a bit of a mess.
“But they’re quite light and really nice. People have been coming back for more – one customer has been every day for two weeks!”
The barm is put in the fryer for three to four minutes before being turned over and cooked on the other side until crispy. It’s then topped with chips for a delicious treat.
Victoria added: “We are the only ones doing it in the area. I don’t know anyone else that’s doing it.
“We just thought we would do a bit of variety.
“With demand I have to keep up with what people like and what the changes are, it’s been a brilliant response.”
Right then – that’s tea tonight sorted!
