Oh no.....he's gone and started the STOVIES ARGUMENT!!
some folk use mince, some use corned beef out a tin, some don't use any meat at all, others use the leftover from yesterday's tea..
Some mash the tatties, some half squish them, some just cut them in half
some add onions, some do leeks, some add other veggies(.e.g. peas), others don't add anything other than the tatties to the meat.
many add a slosh or brown sauce or lea and perrins
some add a bit of stock to make the mix a bit wetter, some don't.
someone I knew added a tin of baked beans to the mix
But - we ALL call it stovies, afaik:rotfl:Member of the first Mortgage Free in 3 challenge, no.19

Second Stovies - Especially in this weather:
You can of course put just about anything you want in them but TBH, if you want to do them veggie, a variety of rough-chopped seasonal veg will work brilliantly too - You do not need to take the fake meat route to keep the satisfaction value high - My gran's meat-free stovies went down well with both veggie & non-veggie mates!0 -
