for the evening meal in winter. This warms the old cockles a treat
Stew 1 - 2 people depending on how hungry you are
I med sized leek or onion
2 potatoes
1 large carrot
1 sweet potato or squash
1 ring of Mattesons smoked sausage or other 'Bockwurst' or 'hot dog' type sausage or some chicken (fried in the bottom of the pot first) or any meat you fancy really. Diced pork is also good.
1 Small tin of chopped tomatoes
Vegetable stock powder or cube
Cornflour to thicken the stew
Tabasco sauce (optional but I love it) add after cooking
Peel the sweet potato, the other veg can just be cut up and dosn't need peeling. Fry the meat in your cooking pot if using raw meat, add the chopped up veg and some water and start heating it up. Add some cornflour and vegetable stock powder mixed first with cold water otherwise it goes lumpy if you stick straight in hot water. Boil till the veg is soft. The sweet potato will disintegrate a little but it adds to the taste of the liquid. When nearly done add the tinned tomatoes, and sausage if using already cooked meat. serve and add tabasco. Absolutely delicious and will warm you a treat on a cold night in the woods
