This always makes school children smile when served for lunch in school canteens. It is a dot dish, that is, it is a steamed pudding containing raisins (hence the dots), possibly served with dried fruit and sometimes brandy.

Despite the unappetizing name, this dish is quite tasty and contrary to what one might think, it does not contain any amphibians. The dish consists of pork sausages (or bangers) baked in a giant Yorkshire pudding and is very tasty served with a strong onion gravy. The name itself is just a linguistic curiosity: it was born in the late 1600s when batter puddings were baked under skewers of roasted meat and later known as dripping pudding. The lean cuts of meat, called 'toadies', are cut away and added to the pudding to create this unique dish.

This dish is traditionally served on Sunday evenings and was created to reuse leftovers. The recipe calls for mixing leftover cabbage and potatoes from the Sunday roast and frying them. The name comes from the sound of the ingredients when they hit the pan - the cabbage really squeaks!
