Sunday Roast
A roasted joint of beef served with roast potatoes, carrots, gravy and Yorkshire pudding, the whole meal timed to come together at midday.
Where it comes from
Tied to a weekly pause from work, with Sunday historically kept free for a long, shared midday meal the rest of the week's schedule didn't allow, built around one large cut feeding a household.
What cooks argue about
Getting Yorkshire pudding to rise properly is the most argued part of the meal: the fat in the tin has to be smoking hot before the batter goes in, or it collapses before it sets.
