Couples’ No1 beef is about roast dinner

- BY STIAN ALEXANDER

ROAST dinners cause more arguments than any other meal, says a study.

One in four couples admit to bust-ups over which meat or veg to have and how to cook them.

Arguments often centre around whether to make it all from scratch or just buy a ready-made meal.

Some insist on parboiling potatoes then sticking them in the fridge for an hour before roasting – while others settle for frozen roasties.

Gravy and Yorkshire puds were also a battlegrou­nd over whether to make your own and risk making a mess.

The Sainsbury’s poll of 1,000 couples also found that most relied on takeaways or the microwave for a romantic meal rather than cooking from fresh.
