Fish Finger Sandwiches!

I've rediscovered my love for fish finger sandwiches recently, only to be greeted with a chorus of 'fish finger.. sandwiches?' from Americans and Europeans alike. So, because I'm terribly bored and get weird ideas when I haven't slept, I feel the need to educate.

First of all, you have your fish fingers (also known as fish sticks):



Om nom nom. Now, we grill them. Five should be enough for one sandwich.



They take about ten minutes to grill so you can do other things while that's going on, like buttering the bread, or making a brew...



(I freakin' love that cup.)

When the fish fingers are done, it's time to put them on the bread~



You can add sauce if you like, at this point. Personally, I don't, but whatever floats your boat. I would also recommend you cut it in half, if only because the heat will soak through the bread and it might be awkward to hold it if you don't.



Then, enjoy~! I know I did! =D



(Benny likes fish finger sandwiches, too.)

BUTTER?


I-I'm sorry, but I just can't... I mean, ok, after I thought about it, I thought that it could work out, but with butter? no. :|
You anglos and your cuisine are weird.

Well, margarine, actually...

You don't have to have it... it's just personal preference...

But... Butter!!! It's like having buttered eggs, it does not compute!


Though I WILL try this out eventually. I have a few fishfingers left over. I'll just use... tartare sauce or something equally unhealthy.


I still love you though. Butter and all. <3

Buttered eggs? That's just weird...

Do you not normally put butter on your sandwiches? o.o

[identity profile] phoenixdown7.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:50 am (UTC)(link)
It's usually mayo or ketchup...or mustard. Butter is strange to put on meat I think. It's like...not tasty enough or something. It goes well on toast and between toast and jam...even on pancakes...but in a sandwich? That's weird.

haha

[identity profile] blood-winged.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:51 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. It's pretty much a given over here.

I put it to you that YOU are the weird ones.

Since, y'know, we kind of invented them in their modern form :3

[identity profile] phoenixdown7.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hahaha..yeah, probably. Butter just seems too bland though. You guys gotta spice things up!!! ^___^

[identity profile] blood-winged.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
We are British. We like our spice in our foreign, funny sounding food, not our sandwiches ;D

HAHAHAAH...touche. How could I forget this crucial fact? XD

[identity profile] lemiru.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
omg thank you! I was beginning to wonder if i was doing it all wrong xD

[identity profile] phoenixdown7.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
I don't really think there's a wrong or a right way to make a sandwich...other than not putting something between two pieces of bread. XD

[identity profile] lemiru.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
H-How dare you discriminate against the all-bread-sandwichers! how dare you.

Man, now I'm hungry.

[identity profile] phoenixdown7.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:08 am (UTC)(link)
Hahaha....dude...that's not a sandwich that's just a stack of bread. But if there was some butter in there... XDDDD

And so, the circle closes again! Philosophy of the sandwich~

[identity profile] lemiru.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:50 am (UTC)(link)
I do use butter for my sandwiches, there's just some things that i would NEVER eat with butter. Like eggs. Or fryed stuff like fishfingers. MAYBE IT'S JUST ME THAT IS WEIRD???
/brb existential crisis

I-I didn't mean to sound mean, btw? It was just a joke. I-I just never sound joking over the internets. Please don't be upset ;_;

[identity profile] blood-winged.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
B-but, they're not fried..

-lipwobble-

[identity profile] lemiru.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:53 am (UTC)(link)
Bu-but they are? I mean, ok, they're out from the oven, but there's still that batter stuff around the fish, and that's fried. I think? I-I-I dunno...


DON'T LIPWOBBLE IT'S OK HERE YOU CAN HAVE MY BUTTER TOO IF YOU WANT *lipwobble too*

[identity profile] blood-winged.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
They're grilled.. a-and it's breadcrumbs... which is also not fried..


-wibbles-

[identity profile] lemiru.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
but but but how do the breadcrumbs stay on, then? (insert absolute no knowledge about fishfingers here, please).

Anyway, fishfingers is just in the miru-category of 'do not eat with butter', just like I wouldn't put butter into a hamburger or anything. um.

I'd like to thank the fishfinger sandwich without which this whole thing would never have been possible. And my lovely wife fee, for she did an amazing job. Thank you, thank you, I'm so touched.

Hehe ^-^

Fish finger sandwiches *-* They're simply made of awesome! You have to add some remoulade...

I prefer fish fingers in bread rolls (I hope that bread roll is the right word for what we call "Brötchen").

[identity profile] blood-winged.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
Remoulade.. nah. I don't like sauce on them :3

And yes, that's the right word ^^

I love how in all my American glory my first thought when seeing this page
"...fish don't have fingers, lol"
We call them fish sticks over here. But yours sounds cooler.
And now I really want some, me and my friends use to put them inside of hot dog buns with katchup and mustard.
lol

I think I prefer 'fish fingers' over 'fish sticks' >w<;

OMG...in hotdog buns with ketchup and mustard???? That sounds EPIC! Now I really want one!
