Grilled meat served with a green vegetable with onion and a tomato cooked in shallow water so that it steams really. There may be a slice of bread with it. Ground black pepper and rock salt will be added during cooking.

I'm not sure if I have a 'most common meal', life is too shambolic. We tend to have one takeaway a week (pizza, good indian etc), and some nights we fend for ourselves (we're both really busy), which is when I tend to veer towards the crappier end of the food chain and she eats piles of raw green stuff. But my girlfriend is a great cook, so when we eat together the repertoire is pretty wide - great stir-fries, a brilliant goulash, simple tasty things with fish, a real variety of fairly authentic and distinct curries..

i eat pasta with homemade sauce once a week
Plus, normally:
soup (at work)
Chicken breast with rice and veg or Salmon with rice and veg
I try and make a big pot of curry or something on a sunday, but this tends to happen about once a month rather than every week.

The most common weekday suppers are probably:
Pork mince noodle soup (slightly hot and sour)
Simple pasta dishes (arrabiata, with meatballs etc)
Thai stir fries and curries
Risottos
The latter two are fairly typical of using up leftover stock and veggies from the w/e roast.

I remember my first Ulster Fry.
I was new in Norn aarnd, went to the cookhouse in the police station I was based at.
The cook got out a huge pan and said 'Aaarl goiy yoy rr praaaproy breakfast, son, soy oy woll' to which I just went 'errr'.
I watched as she put a full block of butter (half a pound isn't it?) in a huge pan, then added all the standards of an English brekky plus some things called farls. These soaked up all the fat, but to be sure, she wiped the pan with one of them. I'd assumed there were another 4 or 5 men coming down for brekky, but it was all for me.
No wonder the Norn Irish don't live too long. I've said it before - the life expectancy over there was low 'cos of food and drink habits, not Paras and Piras.
The Ulster Fry - a heart attack on a plate that will suppress your appetite for up to 2 days! My missus warns me not to eat them when I pop home to see my Ma as she still wants me to be alive in 6 month's time. Bloody tasty though!

I think mine tends to be rice, veggies and salmon (not all mixed together but all on the same plate like meat and veg).

What can you do with it though? I can get curly kale in my local morrisons, and I tried it in a salad and found it was like eating wood...
