Description: Hotpot A Lancashire staple, well, the whole of the North of the UK. Could be lamb or beef, this one is adorned with mushrooms. It is a delicious way of using cheaper cuts of meat. 500 g - 600 g stewing beef Cut into small cubes A large onion chopped finely Cook until it just starts to brown, then add the beef on a low heat To this add salt and pepper, thyme, herbs of your choice As the meat starts to change colour, just cover with water and bring to the boil Add 250 g button mushrooms cut finely As the mushroom cooks and add a little more water and also 4 chopped carrots 
Get a simmer going and cook for 2 hours After 90 minutes add 2 baking sized potatoes cut into small cubes With 3 other baking potatoes, slice them into thick crisps with a sharp knife Thicken the gravy towards the end of the cooking with cornflour, gravy mix or flour and butter Place the meat mixture into a shallow roasting pan and layer the potatoes on the top, not too thick, so they will crisp up. Sprinkle salt and pepper on the top and then spray the potatoes with a little oil. Cook for 45 - 50 minutes at 180ºC, 350ºF, Gas 4 or 70 minutes at 170ºC, 325ºF, Gas 3 Serve with red cabbage and / or onions in vinegar.
