Problem is, OH won't eat spuds. Can anyone think of a substitute that will
work with carrots and onions etc?

Any one (or two) veg will do, sliced or shredded, but pref NOT parsnips.
TIA.

That's a good idea, it would go well with the grilled cheese.

Oh and I thought of zucchini! Does she like squash type stuff?

Grew a lot of courgettes on the allotment, haven't seen many in Morrison's
for the last 2 weeks.

Instead of dough, she has used oversized courgettes for pizza bases. If
Morrison's are out of stock of these or Celeriac, I think butternut would be
a good sub.

It'll taste nothing like Panhaggerty, by the time we've ponced it up :-)

Why would you care so long as it tastes good:))

Celeriac
I was thinking of turnip, but we had some recently (a lot) when she made :-
http://www.saucy-spatula.com/recipes/turnip-cake/ for the Chinese New Yr.

I think Celeriac and cauliflower would be fine. I know the French like
celeriac shredded with mustard and mayonnaise, as a starter. I'll slice it,
this should give the PH a bit more body?

An obvious substitute would be Sweet Potatoes. Unless Sweet Potatoes
are still 'spuds' to the OH?

I've never cooked with yams but maybe they'd be worth a try. Or,
Jerusalem artichoke? What with all the gales around nobody will notice
a little extra wind :-)

Too late, the deed is done. Rang Morrison's earlier and they put a couple of
celeriac to one side for me.

In addition, I'll be using carrots, caul, onions, stock and streaky bacon.
Googling around, I discovered this starter, so I'll give it a whorl

Thanks, I will bear sweet potatoes in mind for next time.

My other half has mentioned a meal her mother used to cook several times
called 'puddings in the corner'. From the description, it sounds like and
option- based on how my mum cooked panhaggerty ( which may not have been
text book but was very good).

Puddings in the corner had small suet dumplings cooked in the cooking tray
at the edges and in the corners, as required to give the quantities. All
other ingredients went in the remaining space. I assume foil or a lid was
used to ensure proper cooking through before the dumplings dried out on
top, which was removed to 'crisp' them in the final stages.

I've never cooked it, these days senior management avoids dumplings, which
is a great shame as I like them in stews etc.

Sounds good:) I sometimes make stew with dumplings and once they are risen
and cooked I remove them and put them in a hot oven to crisp up. I hate
soggy dumplings.

I love dumplings and had never heard of corner pudding so looked it
up.. and here's the recipe. Will definitely be trying this.

(and it's a nice blog, though probably not for Mike)

Is the dumpling batter wrapped around the mince or steak and kidney
(mentioned in the blog) or separate?

I think those are just dumplings, no wrapping.

The ingredients of dumplings vary but I include suet (Atora) bread
crumbs, flour, seasoning, herbs. Mix, then add just enough cold water to
bind and roll into golf- balls (they will expand on cooking). I would
part-cook the mince and gravy on the stove top (make it quite runny
because the dumplings will soak it up) tip it in a roasting dish then
put the raw dumplings in the corners and bake in the oven till the
dumplings are well risen and browned.

Next time we will add dumplings, as you see from the photo, there was quite
a bit of liquid.

I also shredded the carrot and celeriac, which may have created more juice
(the recipe says 'sliced')

Wife suggested doubling the streaky to 500g. Agreed as half the Sunday
dinner is usually reheated the following day.

Celeriac (thanks Graham) also makes a nice starter (see remoulade recipe
above) although we did cheat by adding a few raisins.

Thanks for the dumpling recipe, will save to favs.

Glad it worked out! Not everyone likes celeriac.

I had been thinking more of a Gratin Dauphinois style than grating as you
can make a version of that classic by alternating slices of tater with
celeriac.
