DISCO FRIES WERE MADE FOR LOVING BLACK SPIDERS

Do do doooooo, dee dooo, dee do, doooo, dooooooo. 
Do, do, do, dee doooo dee doooooo. 

Ooh, they must have been cold. 



I was made for lovin you baby, you were made for lovin meeeeee.....

Now, I had only been born for 17 days when this album was released so I didn't get the disappointment of seeing Kiss go "Disco". 

In my opinion it was a brave, tongue in cheek move. 
Kiss proved that they can do "Disco" better than.... well... DISCO!

I also think that Metal bands come up with the best covers. But we shall leave that for another blog eh?????????? 
Oh, how exciting. 

(In fact, off tangent....... 
If you have managed to read the blog this far down and aren't bored yet, then send your "Best Metal cover" suggestions to my Facebook page and we can start up a wee playlist. Link to Facebook is at top of this blog, well the last time I checked it was). 

Here is the great band at work. 



You are probably wondering why i'm going on about Disco Kiss?

Well, if you go to a chippy or takeaway in Glasgow (and I think round most of the UK) you can buy a specialty called 
"Disco Fries".

I'm not sure if they call it this because you usually order it when you come out of a "disco" slightly worse for wear and in need of sustenance?

Basically it is chips with gravy and cheese, much like it's posher Canadian cousin the "Poutine", which has cheese curds instead of normal grated cheddar.

Baulk and also NOT my photo


So we have Disco fries in honor of Disco Kiss.
I've switched the recipe up a wee bit though for my sophisticated pallet.....

I'm using a blue cheese sauce instead of grated cheese as I love the tang you get from blue cheese. 

Yep, never snog me after disco fries........ 
Not that I'm insinuating that you all want to snog me. But the offer is there anyway. 

OK, so the Black Spiders bit is about another band who I think are brilliant. 


Saw them live in Wolverhampton when I went to see Danzig and they have a song called " Kiss Tried to Kill Me" which you should definitely check out below.



Righty 'O, so we should get on with the recipe eh?

This recipe is really easy and requires no effort at all. 
Most of the products you can buy ready made. 
I know this is a cooking blog but hey, sometimes you just want an easy life. 
And I wouldn't suggest cooking while drunk. Unless you want to burn your house down??????

Half bag Frozen oven or fryer chips. Or a whole bag if you are really hungry???
400g tub ready made rich gravy (you can make your own gravy from scratch if you like)
150g roast beef  shredded ( you can use left overs or buy a pack of roast beef from le shoppe)
200ml double cream
100g Roquefort cheese
Salt and pepper

Cook your chips in the oven or fryer as per package instructions.

Get two little pots.
Put the gravy and roast beef into one and the cream and blue cheese into another.

Heat both on medium low heat while the chips are cooking. 
Stir the cheese sauce every now and then so it doesn't burn and till the sauce is thick and creamy. About 15 minutes. 

Put the chips onto two plates, add a little salt and pepper.
Top with the Gravy then top with the Cheese sauce.



Get it doon ye!
