Sunday Roast - the British tradition

Sunday Roast is one of the most cherished culinary traditions in Britain. Families gather for a Sunday lunch centred around roasted meat, be it beef, lamb, pork, or chicken. The meat is accompanied by Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, carrots, peas, parsnips, and a rich gravy. Each type of meat has its traditional pairing: beef with horseradish, lamb with mint sauce, and pork with apple sauce.
