Bubble & Squeak

If you are on a budget then this bubble and squeak is a great way to use up leftovers! On Sunday we made more mash than we needed, so we mixed it together with a little of the leftover cabbage. Each potato cake (approx 160g) was fried in the same pan as the sausages until cooked. We used good quality sausages from our butcher, so there wasn't a lot of fat running out of them. We estimate the meal at around 600 calories.  We could have added baked beans, tomatoes and mushrooms too.
Until the sausages went into the pan I wasn't sure I wanted this (after having a bit of a cold). But, the smell of the fat cooking seemed to stimulate my appetite. It reminds me of when you go past a fast food outlet, and suddenly you feel hungry. Why does it happen? Is it because we are programmed to search out certain types of foods?
