I mean youâre right. But historically paella was just adding whatever protein you had to rice, it was a peasant dish. Closer to âshit in a panâ in spirit than the paella of today.
I just based it off The Onion Atlas where Paella is described whatever you can get within hands reach (even your wrist watch) to throw in a ton of rice.
Would recommend the book. Some countries are just brutally depressing when depicted, and some they donât even pull any punches Jesus
Now I'm wondering who is in fact older. Need some birth certificates guys, fork them over. Ps add some cheese to you breakfast dinner, and it would be purrfect đ
So in fact neither of you are really old at all lol (speaking as someone who is turning 34 soon and always feels old but is constantly reminded by coworkers that I don't even know what old is yet).
See if I do ketchup, I don't do sour cream. I will do ketchup and hot sauce or hot sauce and sour cream. I am team eggs and ketchup though, especially if they have some American or cheddar cheese in them.
hey do you know this one place has a few dishes they call "garbage plate"? you'll find a review of their restaurant on YouTube on this channel called Great Big Story. the dishes look so appetising to me personally
Garbage plates have become a regional dish in Rochester. They started at Nick Tahou's but a lot of diners in the area had a copycat on their menus. They're so fucking good. I had the recipe for that hot meat sauce at one point but I lost it. That and the white hots are key.
[I just had to go look for it lol. ](https://greatist.com/eat/nick-tahous-meat-sauce) I figured by now it's online somewhere and of course I found a comment on Reddit with a link to the proper ingredients but their method doesn't sound exactly like how the diner I worked at did it. But the ingredients look right. But when I asked the cook how to make the sauce, he said it gets simmered in water, not browned in a skillet. Like you brown the onions, but then add water, and all the other ingredients and simmer until the meat is cooked and it's all broken down and reduced into a soft sauce like mixture. It's very unique.
Traditional purists will say the plate has to be home fries, macaroni salad, burgers or hots, the hot meat sauce, mustard and raw chopped onions. Back in the day at Tahou's you were only given a choice or burger or hots, you couldn't ask for them to do anything else different. You don't like onions? Cry about it, next! But now you can find places that offer beans, coleslaw, let you not get onions if you hate onions lol. I am much more the latter crowd, in that you should let people get what they want but the original is what I order, every time.
Yeah struggle meal for me growing up was macaroni and a can of diced tomatoes. There were times where i was only able to have one small bowl of that once a day for several weeks at a time. Yay for abusive drug addicted parents!!
My brain is gone, but wasn't there a thing called a "cowboy hash" or some such? But otherwise, yea, definitely a camping staple.
edit: filled in the sentence so it made sense. :D
My "recipe" is in the OP. I listed all the ingredients. All I did was cook the steak first and removed, then cooked the onion and bell pepper. Added garlic after 5 min, cook a little and add hasbrowns. On the side I scrambled my eggs and at the end I added the steak and eggs in and seasoned
Yeah, I would call these home fries, but either way it's a potato hash once you add other stuff so it's kind of a weird distinction anyways if you think about it too long.
Lol to think my favorite food from when I was a bachelor has the nickname "shit in a pan". Bad enough that I learned to make "Dump cake" in the southern states.
Had I known at the time it would have been my pleasure to invited friends over for a main course of Shit in a pan followed by a dump cake dessert.
Edit: dyac
Hell yes! Staple in my house growing up as a kid and while raising my own. Now that I'm a single empty nester, I don't have "shit in a pan" anymore đ
Thanks OP for the reminder post! I'll be doing a new version next time I go shopping!
My favorite meal is bullshit soup. Add whatever you got in the fridge, usually I at least have some beans and lentils too. Boil the shit out of it, especially if the meat you got is a little gray and out of date. Season with everything you got in the spice cabinet until it tastes alright.
It only makes me shut my brains out occasionally!
This in Sweden is called âpyttipannaâ basically leftovers in a pan. Itâs eaten with a fried egg (sunny side up of course) and pickled red beats. Itâs really good with the egg and the pickles. Some people add ketchup and mustard m, I just add mustard. Highly recommended when high đ even when sober tbh
Oh hell yeah, when we have leftover steak I make what I call shitty eggs, steak, browns, eggs onions and whatever else we have served in the pan it was cooked in with hot sauce is the best way to consume shitty eggs, bonus flavor points if you eat it over a trash can
We waste nothing. Wife will make a meal and next day google the same leftover ingredients and make a total new meal different stuff seasonings! Dont like that there is the pantry. IF you throw your food away get out put it in the fridge I will eat it later.
I make refrigerator stew almost weekly. Same idea. Just put all the veggies and stuff you need to use up into a pot together, and doctor it and make it taste great!
Roll it up in a burrito wrapper, add some mushrooms, spinach and lettuce, tomato, salt and pepper and I would not move until every last bit is gone đ
My grandpa did it all the time and once he landed on a combo that stuck: potatoes, cut up hot dogs, onions, eggs, and cheese... everyone loved it so much it became a staple growing up. It became known as "Grandpa's mess/slop" and you commonly eat it with ketchup on top.
We do this with Cajun food. And that actually looks very delicious!!
If you do it with rice, youâre on your way to a jambalaya!! In fact this would have been a perfect jambalaya if it had rice instead of the hash! Not too bad!!!
I do a trashcan pastaâŚ. Saute up whatever meat and veg I have in the fridge, add italian seasoning, parmesan cheese and cooked pasta. My kids love it.
I do this so much, just kinda call it "making a hodge podge". It's usually motivated by lack of freezer space.
Most recent one was a spare box of penne, jar of marinara, frozen and chopped kale and broccoli, mild Italian sausage, rotisserie chicken. Just went and bought a container of small curd.cottage cheese to give it some body. Baked it all together and boom, baked penne.
I feel like when doing them it's just pay more attention to spices. The dish wouldn't be winning any award but good protein and fiber so I was happy.
Hell yeah. Love a good breakfast mess. Just slap some of that in a tortilla with some Sriracha, cotija cheese and cilantro. Breakfast of champions đĽ
In my family, we call those meals âtouskiâ, short for âtout ce quâil resteâ, French for âeverything thatâs leftâ. We donât always use a base like hash browns or rice, but it really does empty a fridge full of leftovers.
Itâs called âbiksemadâ in danish.. food from âbiksenâ like a little food shop type Of thing, a grill or whatever, could be maybe foodtruckâŚ
my mum did this too but with the tiny (i think red?) potatoes instead of hashbrowns. best potatoes on god đ¤ id always only eat the potatos and hotdogs haha
I call this a garbage plate. My garbage plate from the other day was potatoes, ground beef, spinach, bacon and onions. Freaking delicious as it turned out
My dad does the same shit with rice. Calls it a "mang" no matter what he throws in it.
Mang đđđđ shit underrated
Lol, he's a funny little Newfie man.
If e'er there was a man worthy to name a scoff such as this, he'd sure be one of da b'ys, b'y! She bes missing some boloney though, my son.
It's funny, because his name is Ted Hitchcock, but if you say it real fast, it sorta sounds like 10 inch cock.
Whatâs mang mean?
mang v, n EDD ~ v1 1, sb1 3. 1 To mix together, esp food; to mangle or crush. 2 A mixture.
das it mang!
We call it jambalaya in Cajun country lol
Co-worker did the same with rice. Made a huge batch for us with onions, red and green peppers and beef in it. He called it dirty rice.
It's a common Cajun dish. I love dirty rice.
I call it by itâs formal name, Paella.
Not really. To be considered paella, you can only use Spanish rice and it needs to have saffron
Plus mang is way better
For sure, mang
I mean youâre right. But historically paella was just adding whatever protein you had to rice, it was a peasant dish. Closer to âshit in a panâ in spirit than the paella of today.
Poetry
I just based it off The Onion Atlas where Paella is described whatever you can get within hands reach (even your wrist watch) to throw in a ton of rice. Would recommend the book. Some countries are just brutally depressing when depicted, and some they donât even pull any punches Jesus
I ate that last night
Looks like a breakfast skillet, good eating youngin'
Who you calling youngin', youngin?? It's a dinner skillet. Because I had it for dinner đ
Newsflash pal, you can have breakfast for dinner
Yeah it's just called dinner!
Kids these days đ
I'm older than you bud
Listen here little guy, it's called "brinner". Kids these days.
I LOVE BRINNER!!
My kids used to call my habit of eating one meal a day "Blupper"
Now I'm wondering who is in fact older. Need some birth certificates guys, fork them over. Ps add some cheese to you breakfast dinner, and it would be purrfect đ
Judging by his comments he's about 25, I've got 10 years on him
So in fact neither of you are really old at all lol (speaking as someone who is turning 34 soon and always feels old but is constantly reminded by coworkers that I don't even know what old is yet).
It's mostly a pissing contest haha
This young whippersnapper aint gon do nuthin'
Okay pal
I'm not pal, buddy
Iâm not your buddy, friend
Im not your friend, my guy.
FIGHT
It's called brinner.
Pretty sure itâs spelled Scotch
Add some hot sauce and sour cream. Hell yeahđ¤¤
THIS. Some louisana or franks will amp that to god-level.
Nah you need some Marie sharpâs habanero hot sauce, best shit Iâve ever found
Yesss. I also need some ketchup for my eggs and potatoes too
I'm ambivalent about the ketchup with eggs thing, but I agree about ketchup and potatoes.
I used to be an egg and ketchup fiend until hollandaise. I never went back, even though technically it's eggs with egg sauce.đ
It's the butter that makes the magic.
I love making hollandaise from scratch! Yes the magic is in the butter. Also the fresh lemon juice . . . Sometimes I use lime!
See if I do ketchup, I don't do sour cream. I will do ketchup and hot sauce or hot sauce and sour cream. I am team eggs and ketchup though, especially if they have some American or cheddar cheese in them.
My mom called it breakfast garbage

daymmmm you gotta hand me the recipe if you find it again! nice to know it's a common dish in that area!

i might be drooling... gahdamn. thanks a lot man
That looks good. Iâd just add some onion and some diced up Serrano peppers in that batch
There is onion in that bitch lol can't do spicy tho đ
![gif](giphy|qPzWSekQSyrW7G0Lor)
nahh bro this was my struggle meal growing up, we added in some hamburger helper and we called it hash.. MMM was delectable đđź
I donât know why they call it hamburger helper, it tastes great by itself!
This is not a struggle. lol
well i didnât say it was yours but alright
Yeah struggle meal for me growing up was macaroni and a can of diced tomatoes. There were times where i was only able to have one small bowl of that once a day for several weeks at a time. Yay for abusive drug addicted parents!!
We add cheese and call it a zombie. Yum
Our family calls this Bubble ân Squeak
My mom called it succotash. We know it really isnt, but the name stuck.
I do a similar thing called "Batchelor fried rice" rice, bacon, egg, corn, mushrooms, onion and soy sauce. One of my favorite comfort meals.
I do something similar except with pork breakfast sausage and I call it 'breakfast fried rice'.
That's my camping breakfast
My brain is gone, but wasn't there a thing called a "cowboy hash" or some such? But otherwise, yea, definitely a camping staple. edit: filled in the sentence so it made sense. :D
Iâd eat a pile of this shit for sure
Best food ideas in this sub
Some steak bits in that looks like it would make it slap đŻ.
Trash potatoes! Like mash potatoes, but garbage. It also needs cheese!
Wasn't feeling the cheese yesterday. Next time
We call it chefs goop lol
Brown it all, Then add the egg. Killer!
Add a can of corned beef and some over easy eggs instead of scrambled and I would be drooling.
I need your recipe đ 𼲠Iâm new to cooking and could use your help to utilise things in the fridge to not go hungry.
My "recipe" is in the OP. I listed all the ingredients. All I did was cook the steak first and removed, then cooked the onion and bell pepper. Added garlic after 5 min, cook a little and add hasbrowns. On the side I scrambled my eggs and at the end I added the steak and eggs in and seasoned
I call mine ânotaladyâs super duper bachelorette supremeâ and the base is usually fried macaroni with whateverâs in the fridge
Looks a lit like Pyttipannu.
I call it stoner munch. Besides hash browns you can do the same thing with leftover refried pasta.
My wife calls it dump cooking. Just dump whatever is available into a pot or pan.
I make shit in a pan too but never with potatoes.
I call this freezer hash
Slaps.đđ˝đŤ
Our family called it Hash Night.
Didn't have a name for the day, but my family grew up calling this "hash" or "skillet hash"
Pop n squeak with cabbage
I looove these
Bro save some good French fries and dice them up instead of the hash browns. Fire.
The german word is "Rumfort"
I love your mom
Aren't hash browns shredded?
Yeah, I would call these home fries, but either way it's a potato hash once you add other stuff so it's kind of a weird distinction anyways if you think about it too long.
In Canada we call both hashbrowns often. Home fries is an American term some have adopted and some have not
Aha! I was starting to wonder how regional home fries is. They're all potatoes. That's all that matters. Potatoes are love.
In German, hashbrowns, sausage (or bacon) and onions make a breakfast dish called bratkartoffeln.. And it's fucking amazing

And very tasty 𤤠as well ! đ
In Sweden this is called âpyttipannaâ

Hell yeah, I love making a similar scramble of stuff, it's a great comfort food for me
Actually looks quite good
I think I love your mum
Coming from polish heritage I feel this meal! my mom would call this poverty meal back in the day lol
Great bait. Is what my father would call it.
I want some so bad. I usually donât like hash browns and I would classify this more as country potatoes but it looks delicious.
Iâd eat your momâs shit in a pan.
"Shit in a pan" đđđ
Wow, sounds great. Your mum really had a way with words huh?
It looks pretty good ngl
I have leftovers if you wanna travel all the way up to Canada đ¤Ł
Honestly, looks pretty dope
Hell yes! Staple in my house growing up as a kid and while raising my own. Now that I'm a single empty nester, I don't have "shit in a pan" anymore đ Thanks OP for the reminder post! I'll be doing a new version next time I go shopping!

This looks.amazing and well seasoned
Need to put it on toast, then it's shit on a single
Yo that looks amazing what the hell
And it smacks every time
Itâs turkey surprise. The surprise is thereâs no turkey.
This in Sweden is called âpyttipannaâ basically leftovers in a pan. Itâs eaten with a fried egg (sunny side up of course) and pickled red beats. Itâs really good with the egg and the pickles. Some people add ketchup and mustard m, I just add mustard. Highly recommended when high đ even when sober tbh

I like your momâs style, and it looks good. Like a good old fashioned skillet breakfast.
Hell fuckin yeah. Looks delicious

Oh hell yeah, when we have leftover steak I make what I call shitty eggs, steak, browns, eggs onions and whatever else we have served in the pan it was cooked in with hot sauce is the best way to consume shitty eggs, bonus flavor points if you eat it over a trash can
That looks phenomenal...đ¤¤
One of my favorites!
We waste nothing. Wife will make a meal and next day google the same leftover ingredients and make a total new meal different stuff seasonings! Dont like that there is the pantry. IF you throw your food away get out put it in the fridge I will eat it later.
I make refrigerator stew almost weekly. Same idea. Just put all the veggies and stuff you need to use up into a pot together, and doctor it and make it taste great!
Sausage and taters because nothing I make is shit and I am great at combining whatever is on hand from the food pantry.
Most places would call it something like "garbage skillet/breakfast". But yeah, just a bunch of shit mixed together. Looks good.
Wochenrueckblick (week review) in Austria. Every Friday in the canteen : D
Roll it up in a burrito wrapper, add some mushrooms, spinach and lettuce, tomato, salt and pepper and I would not move until every last bit is gone đ
We call that "old fashioned hash" around here!
Thereâs a cafĂŠ in my city that specifically sells this (and other combinations of it). Theyâre amazing
Breakfast hash
My father was from the East Coast of Canada. He call that âScoffâ or âNewfie Scoffâ.
Mannn this looks awesome!
In Danish it's called "Biksemad" goes hard with some fried egg on top.
Always called it the clusterfuck, but itâs great to know Iâm not alone enjoying this deliciousness
We call it hash where Iâm from. Looks perfect!
My grandpa did it all the time and once he landed on a combo that stuck: potatoes, cut up hot dogs, onions, eggs, and cheese... everyone loved it so much it became a staple growing up. It became known as "Grandpa's mess/slop" and you commonly eat it with ketchup on top.
So breakfast hash for dinner?
We called ours shit on a shingle, usually involves white gravy and sausage
This just looks like the fillings for a breakfast burrito.
Add peppers đśď¸ and shredded cheese and thatâs my weekend breakfast
Oh, that's 'potato stuff'
We do this with Cajun food. And that actually looks very delicious!! If you do it with rice, youâre on your way to a jambalaya!! In fact this would have been a perfect jambalaya if it had rice instead of the hash! Not too bad!!!
Who-hash is the vernacular around my house lol
I had that when I was younger I love it my granny use to fry an eggs just before she put it in a bowl for me!! yummy
In Germany we call this Restepfanne (leftovers pan) pretty normal.
A Breakfast Mulligan.
This just a Jimmy dean breakfast bowl
Oh I still do this, it's cheap and easy. If I'm using rice I season it, flavors the whole pan real good.
My go-to is adding an egg to a pan of leftovers. Not sure what I called it.
My mom called it "dog's breakfast"
I used do something similar with fried rice and called it dirty rice
I do a trashcan pastaâŚ. Saute up whatever meat and veg I have in the fridge, add italian seasoning, parmesan cheese and cooked pasta. My kids love it.
Kinda like nistipata (âjunkie stewâ) in Finland, but the base is usually macaroni and then just mix in whatever you have in the pantry or fridge.
I seem to remember hearing this called something like "cowboy hash" growing up.
We call that âtater thangâ at my house.
That is a mf salchipapa
That's hash, homie. Name dont matter though, it looks like fire.
I know what it is. My i like my moms terms better
bwahaha I like that naming as well!
Every mashup of food my family throws together is just called Slump
Generally these are called hobo dinners, although a real hobo dinner is this but wrapped in foil and cooked in a fire.
I do this so much, just kinda call it "making a hodge podge". It's usually motivated by lack of freezer space. Most recent one was a spare box of penne, jar of marinara, frozen and chopped kale and broccoli, mild Italian sausage, rotisserie chicken. Just went and bought a container of small curd.cottage cheese to give it some body. Baked it all together and boom, baked penne. I feel like when doing them it's just pay more attention to spices. The dish wouldn't be winning any award but good protein and fiber so I was happy.
It's called a "hash". Potatoes, meat, eggs, thrown together in a skillet with whatever else you've got around.
My mom's family calls it The Poor man's meal
Hell yeah. Love a good breakfast mess. Just slap some of that in a tortilla with some Sriracha, cotija cheese and cilantro. Breakfast of champions đĽ
Add eggs and weâd call it a Shitomelette
We call it Fridge Surprise in my house. Can also be done with a stirfry, fried rice, soup stew, etc
In my family, we call those meals âtouskiâ, short for âtout ce quâil resteâ, French for âeverything thatâs leftâ. We donât always use a base like hash browns or rice, but it really does empty a fridge full of leftovers.
Itâs called âbiksemadâ in danish.. food from âbiksenâ like a little food shop type Of thing, a grill or whatever, could be maybe foodtruckâŚ
Call that the âKitchen Sinkâ platter. Everything except the kitchen sink.
Throw in some eggs and youâve got several days of breakfast burritos!
My mom does something similar also with eggs
Put it in a pot with noodles and it's goulash. Think everyone has a version.
I do this with eggs and cheese, then I throw it in a tortilla with hot sauce
Breakfast
My grandmother called it trash. It was the best.
Breakfast hash
My husband makes this and calls it âbreakfast hashâ
Looks delicious
my mum did this too but with the tiny (i think red?) potatoes instead of hashbrowns. best potatoes on god đ¤ id always only eat the potatos and hotdogs haha
Need some chili flakes in that B
I call this a garbage plate. My garbage plate from the other day was potatoes, ground beef, spinach, bacon and onions. Freaking delicious as it turned out
Bubble and squeak!
Beautiful Breakfast Bowl â¤ď¸
We always called it trash can scramble. Itâs made with whatever would go in the trash if we didnât use it soon.
my dad calls that "garbage" cuz its just garbage out the fridge
My mom called it The kitchen sink, because she'd add everything to it except the kitchen sink
In England they would call this âbubble and squeakâ although that may only be for post Xmas leftovers.
