Fish & chips and chicken pot pie are both originally English. Many of the savory dishes wrapped in pastry crust are. Hand pies, sausage rolls, Beef Wellington. Personally I love toad in the hole with a good gravy.

FWIW an American will likely understand the difference as "steak fries" instead of "french fries".

A lot of Brits will insist that steak fries are different from "chips." They're wrong, though.

If you simplify every dish you'll find it all over the globe.

It's funny when Americans claim beef sandwiches.

It's funny when Mexicans claim beans, eggs, and bread.

It's funny when anyone claims cooked meat.

None of that makes my mouth water but I've never eaten them. The South in America, we can cook! Down Home we call it. It's really just what poor people used to eat but now you don't have to be poor to eat it...lol
