Curry batter buns


Aye that's what I'm on about. Not the perverts version.
But isn't that the way most savoury foods go? Crunchy on the outside then a soft part with the wet in the middle.

You don't get a scotch egg (a runny scotch egg) with the sausage meat on the outside the breadcrumb in the middle covered with yolk

Or a chicken Kiev with the chicken on the outside and the breast filled with breadcrumb and garlic butter.

Same as a battered bun, crunchy batter, soft warm bread then a burst of curry or gravy.

Actually it may be the pervert way, if I had one now I dunno wether I'd eat it or buck it
 
I once had a deep fried mince pie and deep fried kebab meat in Dumbarton a few years back. Both utterly horrific unsurprisingly. Probably knocked 5 years off my life expectancy too.
 
Has the OP clarified which version he's after? I can understand the deep fried version being somewhat of a speciality and difficult to find. Surely most shops won't mind hoying a few bits of batter in a bun if that's all people are after :lol:
Just hoyed the handgranade and ran away 😄

Aye, mind for me it was a tie with Church Street chippy in Roker. The curry was lovely. Both chippys did massive curry battered buns and unlike some chippys who used to dip the bun only in the curry, these chippys poured loads of curry on them.

When I was about 19 years old, a lad I worked with said he was walking past Church Street chippy the night before night as some clubbers from The Barbary Coast nightclub were in there. He said that a lass and a lad who were drunk, were stand up shagging, up against the wall at the side of the chippy and the lad was holding his wrapped up bag of chips under his arm pit while in action. :lol:
So he battered her bun
I am not from that area,but i used to go to the matches with them both,and had a few sessions down hendon/grangey way with them. It was crazy at the matches with them mind
Hi Jimmy :lol:

The hut do battered buns filled with chips and curry sauce.
Ok when has anyone in Sunderland had a curried battered bun that was deep fried? I’m 58 this year and never heard of that. Nearly 50 years ago it was a bun with batter and curry sauce. Is this another change in language like saying chebs are tits instead of cocks

That's not a problem. I left the link as the op asked where they are still for sale. No other reason.

A customer of the hut is the obvious answer.

The difference seems to be "Batter bun" a bun with batter and sauce in the middle. Maybe a more Sunderland thing?

"Battered bun" a bun that has sauce in the middle then is battered.

I'm from Murton and ours were battered buns, I'm 49 and between the ages of 10 and 13 got them regularly as they were only 20p, used to get one and a cup of oxtail soup on a freezing night and sit in the welfare hall doorways eating them.

I ordered pie and chips in a Scottish chippie years ago. The lass plonked the pie in the hot fat. I thought she was taking the piss but no, a couple of minutes later she fished it out and served it with the chips. I could feel my arteries furring up as I ate it

I agree with the OP. Curry on batter is a culinary revelation
 
Used to get a Curry Battered Bun from the chippy in Ryhope, just off Burdon Lane, splash of curry in the bun then deep fried with batter.

Got one from the chippy near Eden Vale, Bede St. Chippy, and it was a bun with batter in the middle and a splash of curry sauce.
