Chip Butty

01 / ABOUT THE DISH

About the dish

Chip butty is a British sandwich consisting of chips (fries) between bread that's slathered with butter (hence the butty in the name). Although purists might think that nothing else is needed, some people like to add condiments such as malt vinegar, mayonnaise, or ketchup. The sandwich can be found at chippies and casual eateries throughout the United Kingdom. There's also a variation known as scallop butty , made with battered and deep-fried potato slices instead of chips.
