johnstone's sunday roast

The Sunday Roast!! Sundays in Wales were traditionally meant for Chapel and family. After Chapel, the family would gather around the dinner table for a big meal consisting of a big piece of meat and it's appropriate sides. For the Johnstone's and many other Welsh families, Sunday dinner is a very important part of weekly life. Every piece of meat has it's own set of side dishes that are supposed to accompany it. Beef with Yorkshire pudding, lamb with mint sauce, pork with stuffing, and chicken with sausages and bread sauce. The Sunday meal is usually extended to Monday where the leftovers are recreated to form another supper. The Welsh have unique recipes and ways to cook leftovers whether in stews, in fry ups, or pies.
