my wholesome simple cheap and tasty tatty ash

this is a dish that ive grown up on my gran made it my mum made it my dad even made it (but he put in peas too and smothered his in ketchup and brown sauce) i love it as does my 3 yr old son its simple tasty food and nice to mop the bowl with your hex b bread after if you havent used the hex

1 tin of corned beef (i buy aldis its 11 syns a tin) diced
1kg onions chopped
1kg carrots peeled and chopped
2kg potatoes peeled and chopped
3 beef oxo
pepper to taste
water

put all ingredients in a pan cover 2/3 of contents with water

simmer until all ingredients are cooked and potato goes smushy (thats my technical term but feel free to pinch it)

eat:drool::drool:

i love it with pickled red cabbage and pickled beetroot (because you cant get enough superfree in my oppinion)

simple cheap tasty tasty food

by the way its 11 syns a pan and feeds at least 6 (probably up to 10-11 if your not a greedy moo like me)so max is 2 syns per portion but could be as low as 1 syn per portion depending on portion sizes

I put it in jars hot and screw lids on whilst its hot as it creates an airtight Seal hence the pop when you opan a new jar of Jam etc .... use oven gloves or tea towel to hold hot jar of chutney i dont want any injuries i would think sealed a jar would easily be fine for a yr but mine never lasts that long i used 2 jars last week i slice apple thin and scoop from jar and eat lol its awesome or have dairylea light hex a on wholegrain crackerbreads hex B with fruit and chutney as a brekkie sometimes too
