I have a couple of comments. I couldn't seem to get the gravy effect that you had. I soaked my beans overnight so maybe that's why, but the water just ended up as liquid rather than a thick gravy. Also, I added garlic, celery salt and mixed spice in mine. The kids ended up really liking it with tomato sauce too.

Youe brown off some minced lamb with onions, carrots and other veggies then mix it into a gravy. You top that with mashed poato and grill or oven cook it. We eat this with boiled or steamed vegetables. :) It is real tasty and wholesome, there is also cottage pit which is similar but made with minced beef. <BR/><BR/>I think it is great that your mum used mung beans so much I bet you have lots of great recipes. :) We love mung beans. :)Chef Jeenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16649018732887774182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72160418145248319.post-102318327335150062007-11-22T14:19:00.000+00:002007-11-22T14:19:00.000+00:00I have never had shephards pie, non or veg.In indi...I have never had shephards pie, non or veg.<BR/>In indian kitchen we use a lot of mungbeans.<BR/>At home my mom used to ake dishes with it at least once a week.Finlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12122357811540919609noreply@blogger.com
