Does anyone have a good recipe for this?? It is DP favorite stew ever! Only thing is I have no idea how to cook it!
It is DP's birthday next week and we cant really afford to go out so I want to surprise him and make him a yummy meal!
Any recipes would be greatly appreciated, as would ideas on what to serve with it and any ideas what wine/drink would go well???? Geeez I dont ask for much do I:laughing:
TIA

Thanks- I know what you mean, I actually dont like it much at all myself!:o The one that i had as a kid would make me ill:barf:it was awful! and made even worse by it getting served up with parsnip mash and brussle sprouts!!
But i did have a taste of one a while back that had been bought from one of those little homestyle bakery places and it wasn't too bad! not the fatty gross and bland stuff i remembered!
I am having a look on Google but all the recipes are so different! because i haven't EVER cooked with it and rarely eaten it I dont really know which one to make-was hoping someone here would have one they make/like.
DP's dad used to make it for him but his dad passed away before we met so I have no idea how he used to make it!
Just would really love to make DP something that HE loves and I dont usually make !
