    A tin of corned beef, cabbage, garlic, potato, beef stock 200ml & cheese.

    Slice the tin of corned beef, add half in slices to the bottom, then add a layer of cabbage, some garlic, layer of potato slices. Then add the stock. 30MINS from the end add the cheese. Yummy with crusty bread rools & butter to mop up.
