Has James May made the worst sandwich yet?

Ойын-сауық

He has made some fairly spectacular creations over the years, but we think James May has hit rock bottom with this sheer rubbishness. A parsnip sandwich? I think we’d rather bring back the Pot Noodle…

    Another possibility: it's like those magic shops you see in fiction like Twilight Zone. It actually has whatever the person looking needs. If James opens it, he finds the ingredients for his sandwich. If I open it, it's just chock full of beer, cheese, and pickles. If Lucy Brown opens it, it's empty because she doesn't actually like anything.

    I don't think they've ever said where the bunker is. Or shown inside the fridge. If they did, we'd see the big hole in the back of the fridge, the wall, and the inside of the food warehouse they've tunneled into. This is why James gives a cue "I wonder if we have any lard?" which prompts a runner to go fetch it, and plonk it on the shelf.

    I used to make cheese and Doritos Hot Salsa dip sandwiches, with some added sliced sour pickles, but that was about 20 years ago by now, they had changed the recipe and it became much more like a sauce than the watery dip that it used to be, which i loved. To be fair though, the watery dip made it impossible to prepare the sandwiches and eat them some time later, because they'd be soaked and falling apart by then, but still, it just tasted better. Long story short, have you tried making sandwiches with dips?

    Roast parsnip slices in an oven to remove the water content. Allow to cool; then create a marinate with the spices and add to the cooked but now cooled parsnip; allowing those flavours to seep into the parsnip. Pan fry the parsnip crisps at a high heat for a short time, then add to the council bread layered with Lurpak spreadable butter invented in 1901, season the crisps with a touch of sea salt, and serve. You could also separately create a spicy mayonnaise to dip the toasted sandwich into. Thank me later.
