I'm not sure where I got this originally as it's been on a card in my recipe file untried for years. However we finally tried it this week and it was fantastic, very flavoursome, very easy and just generally wonderful. As several people have expressed interest in it I am posting it here. No photo I'm afraid, it isn't a very photogenic dish to be honest but the taste makes up for that.
