    Really nice - made it just for one but still used one potato and leek, did it with some broccoli as well - was very very substantial but lovely. Just realised I forgot the mustard but didn't need it.

    Used pork stock instead of chicken and made 400ml not 300ml to cook veg better. 10 out of 10!

    Very nice but be careful that the gammon you use isn't too salty as it flavours the whole dish.
