Bonny Scottish post-pub nosh neckfiller: Rumbledethumps

John Brown (no body) Silver badge

Last night...

...we knocked up an "instant" neckfiller, invented on the spot as we went along. Half a pan of already boiled potatoes, 3/4 tin of corned beef, 1 large chopped onion and a tin of ready made chickpea dahl.

A little oil, fry the onions till just turning golden, add potatoes and chickpea dahl, stir carefully so as not to turn the tatties into mash, turn gas ring low, add corned beef from fridge chopped into ~1" cubes for the last couple of minutes.

You could prepare in advance, leaving out the corned beef 'cos you don't want those chunks to "dissolve" into the mess, and have it ready in under 5 mins from staggering through the front door.

Purists could, of course, make the Dahl from scratch.
