So, I’m from Staffordshire and at this time of year we love a certain dish called lobby! It’s comforting, easy to make up and the best comfort food on these cold, dark evenings!! This is one of those recipes that every family does differently…so here’s mine!
Ingredients
- Braising steak
- 3 carrots
- 1 large onion
- 4 large potatoes
- 1 cup of peas
- 2 beef stock cubes
- Crusty bread
- Salt and pepper
- A glug of vinegar
Method
Chip all ingredients and add to a slow cooker (low and slow is best). Brown the meat in a pan and add to the slow cooker along with 2 stock cubes and some water. Leave for 4 hours on high and season at the end with a little salt and pepper. Add a glug if vinegar and serve with crusty bread…and thank me later! Also, may I add, we normally eat it 24 hours after it’s cooked (my family tradition I don’t know about anybody else). But, be my guest to eat it straight away!!!
I love dishes that originate from certain counties. The sense of tradition warms my heart! Give it a go!
