[albaqwerty]

[friedgreentomato]

lol no but it was my fav dish when I was a kid and it has just carried on

[dennisb66]

I'm with you Alba, stew and dumplings light and fluffy.

[mccfluff]

saus mash and onion gravy in a big yorkie, or a big bowl of stew, dhal, curries, errrm this could go on a while :-)

[albaqwerty]

There's quite a theme with this cheese sauce though :-D
I love it with macaroni or caulfower.
Must try the cauli and broccoli thing that ummm was on about a while ago.

Dennis, real dumplings (home-made) are not to be missed!

[albaqwerty]

and here comes the boifday girl who refutes any knowledge of sausages!

Hi alba,that sounds just right.
Mrs DG always puts a whole onion in as well.
PS A Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you.

[albaqwerty]

Hope you are both well.

Lamb stew with crispy dumplings- on the menu tonight now you've made me think about it ;-)

[joggerjayne]

Mmm, yummy ... stew and dumplings, yes.

In a slow cooker, so you get the lovely smell.

[magsmay]

that's just what I'm about to put in the slow cooker -beef stew with carrots celery and leeks -splash of red wine and two oxo cubes -then will put herby dumplings in half an hour before dinner tonight.

[TheOtherHalf]

On our work menu today, Roast Pork, Liver and Onions and Leek and Mushroom Pasta Bake. Im sure you can guess by now which I`ll be having, Looking forward to it, followed by Chocolate sponge with choc sauce. Bang goes my diet yet again !! Enjoy :>)

[McMouse]

Lamb stew with diced carrots, swede, sliced onions, mixed pulses, lamb stock. Served with a green veg.......Sprouts are best.

[AlwaysConfused]

I love roasts, curry, shepherds pie, a lovely hearty game pie, stews, oooh, the list goes on. But I look forward to faggots with mash, heaps of veg and added gravy the most in winter. Only Mr Brains faggots, though, homemade ones or meatballs are just not the same

[Slapshot]

Rice Pud... home made or bread and butter pud (made with Brioche or pannetone and whisky soaked sultanas)

[albaqwerty]

home made rice pud, can't beat it.

Mr Alba was asking me about Xmas menu.
I think I'll go for 4 courses,
Prawn Cocktail
Cauli and Broc Cheese
Stew and Dumplings
then rice pud

Well, not really, but.......
