Mister Gain 1,764 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 This thread really made me want to make a stew, but without thawing rabbits and going shopping it was going to be something different. I found 4 roast chicken thighs in the fridge, a few spuds, tin of chick peas, few olives, carrots and other stuff, quickly turned muslim and dug out some harissa paste and ras el hanout, as will as the tagine. It turned out nice and fiery. Told her to get some stuff in at the weekend and we'll have a proper stew with dumplings next week. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Gain 1,764 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Well I got my wish, just made a stew with 6 dumplings. She bought one of those 4 bird rolled roast things out of Lidl for sunday and it ended up dry as fcuk, so I used it for the stew. Turkey, chicken, goose and duck and plenty of chunky veg, guts are rumbling. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
