What is the traditional British meal served on Sunday?

The traditional British meal served on Sunday is the Sunday roast. This meal typically consists of roasted meat, such as beef, chicken, or lamb, served with various accompaniments including roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, vegetables, and gravy. The Sunday roast has a longstanding cultural significance in Britain, embodying the spirit of family gatherings and special occasions. It is often seen as a way to enjoy leisure time with family and friends after the week.

Other options, while they are popular British dishes, do not hold the same traditional status associated with Sunday meals. Fish and chips, sausages and mash, and steak and kidney pie are enjoyed across different days of the week, but none have the same established tradition specifically tied to Sundays as the Sunday roast does.
