"This has to be one of the best comfort foods around, a must for a cold winters night. This is a slightly altered version originally from Lancashire chef Nigel Haworth."

This is definitely comfort food! I made this over the weekend and I couldnt have chosen a better meal for us, while I was out getting the lamb pieces it started snowing and all the way home I was envisioning the smell this would make while cooking and how delicious it would be to eat. It was perfect, thanks for a great recipe.

Yum Sarah! This is fabulous. Mummamills recommended we try this recipe and I'm so glad we did as it's wonderful. Both my girls devoured their dinner tonight. Easy to put together and the smell while cooking is awesome. Thanks for this one, it's a real keeper for me.

Mummamills cooked this for us tonight. It was delicious comfort food which cooked away happily while we enjoyed a few glasses of wine. We were amazed that such simple ingredients could deliver so much taste!

absolutely wonderfull! I resisted the urge to add anything not on the recipe, made it up the night before, (dumb, cause the top tatoes went grey) and rang hubby from work, to put it in the oven. We ate nearly the whole lot last night, and he said it was 5 star, and he rarely comments. thanks Sarah!
