Pea and Ham Soup in mine today - using half of the stock and some meat from yesterday's ham shank/hock, along with yellow split peas, lentils, sweated onion and three rubbery spring onions. Smells good! At least No.1 son though so when he called in half an hour ago - the aromas from my SC waft him here from 4 miles away :rotfl:!!

Have got to share this lip-smacking, mouth-watering recipe with you all.
No approximate measurements, just bunged in what I felt was right.

Diced red onion browned; four diced carrots which I just threw in; the water from last night's broccoli and green beans; one diced red pepper, browned with the onions; four cubed potatoes, just added to the dish; half a can of guinness; a generous squirt of tomato puree; one low-sodium organic vegetable stock cube; 500g organic cubed beef, prepared in flour, black pepper and paprika and gently browned; half a bag of left-over green beans, topped, tailed and chopped in half;

All then thrown in at 915, cooked on 'HIGH' until 1145 when I added my dumplings, served at 1230 ... absolutely delicious.

That sounds really lush, I am so hungry I always buy food in for tea but never have anything in for dinner.

So I am sat here belly grumbling eating prawn cocktail crisps, and stinging my ulcers in my mouth ouch lol.

Got a packet of game casserole mix (mr s) in mine today with some beefy gravy. Been craving game for a while now (never had it before), which makes me odd.

Mutton stew this evening

diced mutton
onion
2 carrots
3 parsnip
half pack of apricots
a few peppadew peppers for some bite
lazy ginger and parsley
bit of lamb stock
half a glass of red wine

I was a bit worried about how fatty the mutton looked going in, but was lovely.

Just put my SC on. It's only a small one for 2 people and I wish that at the time I'd got a larger one, but it was a present from MIL so I can't be too ungrateful!

Beef stew/casserole:
1/2lb stewing steak
2 carrots
1 onion
mushrooms
tin of chopped tomatoes
glug of red wine
salt & pepper

Fingers crossed....... It's on low so it SHOULD be ready by 6.30pm......
