brown sauce equals HP Sauce
I only twigged that the HP stood for "houses of Parliament" recently. I don't know how many times I gazed at the picture of the houses of Parliament on the bloody bottle without realising this.

What do you put on french fries?
No sauce, cajun spices instead or, if those aren't available, plenty of fresh ground black pepper.

@goosehd salt and pepper is all you need. Malt vinegar always welcome as are certain seasoning blends. Green or red chile, cheese or bechamel sauce, or gravy to shake things up. Even things like masala can work. Fries make a great standalone snack or a media for other deliciousness. I don’t mind a honey mustard, ranch, or blue cheese dressing dip from time to time. I despise ketchup and think mayonnaise is a waste of calories on fries, not really bringing enough to the experience.
Fries benefit from being cooked twice, be it a blanch+fry, double fry, or some other method. Duck fat works wonders for deep frying them. I tend to prefer fries that are irregular shapes and sizes and have pieces with skin on them.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

I can’t argue with this.

@neph93 Daddy’s sauce is still available but is a much inferior product to HP to my very unsophisticated palate.

@goosehd put it on the the ‘to do ‘ list when you visit Gosport!

@IrishHeart I assume this must be consumed with beer to be fully appreciated

@goosehd spot on. With the possible exception of breakfast cereal, most food types are enhanced by a couple of pints!
