I remembered, when it was too late, that I had the Herby Dumpling mix at the back of my larder....

...but the next day I made the same meal again, ('cos it was so nice), and this time I included the Dumplings to complete the picture!

I always include some dried mixed herbs with the Dumplings to make them even nicer!

Paul....with added Suet....

To find it, you would have to remove all the vegetables first, to reveal the luscious liquid, Zaph....

That is the source of the magic!

Pearl Barley.

...and when does a Casserole become a Stew?...

AFAIK, a “stew” is cooked on a hob in a pan and a “Casserole” is baked in an oven in a dish. Don’t take my word for it though; my idea of “cooking” is to pour boiling water into a Pot Noodle! :whistle:

Conventionally, perhaps, but I'm more accustomed to the radar-in-box, even for baking... a 4-to-3 ratio of softened ice cream [I use non-sugar] + self-rise flour, @ 8 minutes at 80% power = a quick-made sweet-bread to sop up on your plate (or bowl).

P.S. µ~ baking time is 'usually' @ 1/3 conventional, so @ 24min at 350° for the longer, conventional endeavor.

One of my sons, some 30+ years ago gave me his unwanted; "radar-in-a-box", (Microwave Oven), and from that day to this, I have never used it! It sits gloomily on my kitchen shelf whilst I have always enjoyed proper-cooking on and in my trusty English Electric, Beko, etc, Gas/Electric Stoves. I could never get used to the time necessary to cook various foods quickly and successfully in a Microwave Oven! I always prefer to cook things very slowly, (for hours), in a conventional Gas/Electric Oven or Hob. I can see what is going on!

My two loves in life:
(1) My Motorcycle.
(2) My Gas Oven.

I need very little more!
