Lovely. A real taste of home for me.

Really enjoyed this - simple to do and very tasty. For personal taste, would go a touch heavier on the spices for a stronger flavour from them. Had family over and served it for Sunday lunch - clean plates all round!
Made this last night cutting down the ingredients as it was for three. It was great but I think when I make it again I will not half the spices as I did last night as I think it needs that depth of flavour
Made this last night and the flavours were fantastic. It needs at least 3 to 4 hours cooking to cook down the onions and potatoes. When l make again will cook the onions down with garlic, then add meat and potato mix, and sprinkle in some parsley before serving.
