| I am a recent convert to pearl barley - so cheap and filling.
Waitrose does a bag of ready-made Irish Stew Mix. It is onions, potatoes, carrots, leeks and herbs. You are supposed to add it to lamb, of course, to make an Irish Stew, but I just cook it as it is with some stock for a free meal on a green day.
Of course, this is a bit naughty, because it would be cheaper if I bought all the ingredients and made it myself, but on days when I just can't find the time for chopping and slicing it is brilliant! |
