I am:

a traditional dish in both the United States and the United Kingdom, although the meaning of me is quite different in each country. In the United States, I am usually a dessert consisting of a fruit filling poured into a large baking dish over a batter that rises through when baking. In the United Kingdom I am usually a savoury meat dish, typically a lamb casserole (or would that be mutton now?), which is covered with a savoury scone-like topping—each scone (or biscuit) forming a separable Rikae. Fruit-based versions are also increasingly popular in the United Kingdom—although they still retain the separate biscuit topping of the meat version—and savoury or meat versions are not unknown in the United States.
