    That’s proper food that is, with proper gravy.😋

    Fifty years ago my then-mother-in-law made a very similar dish, minus the garlic. Neither my father-in-law nor I could ever eat garlic due to allergies, but Ma-in-law could make any dish fabulous without it. <br><br>I recall clearly that this was one dish that the four of us could eat in just one sitting, it was so good. Whenever she made this, she didn&apos;t serve dessert until hours later---we were all too full of that meaty and potato-y deliciousness to eat anything else!

    Oh my goodness! Look at that! A rich beefy mince dish that has lots of onions, garlic, potatoes and cheese makes me go weak at the knees. I saw this video and had a moment, I must admit. It&apos;s been my favourite kind of meal since I was a little girl, now in my 60s and no longer little, it&apos;s still my favourite kind of meal. Cannot beat a good, comforting meal like this and Rik has done it once again. I visually ate a hearty portion while Rik was serving up, I must have gained 4lbs! &nbsp;Gorgeous treat for an Easter Sunday. Perfect.

    I would have added some grated carrot for some extra depth, but that&apos;s just how I make cottage pie anyway? Looks yummy with some broccoli or cabbage on the side. 👍

    I just made this again this morning. Fabulous dish for the fridge and freezer. I also did a batch of creamed mushrooms for freezing and my grub tonight. I also do a batch of 50 battered chicken balls for the freezer. Best recipes ever. Thanks again Rik for everything. You&apos;re a marvel in the kitchen.

    Rik your channel is my go to for recipes and i have made dozens of your dishes and everyone a winner, clearly you are a very talented cook. If you haven&apos;t already i think many of us would be interested in your story, perhaps a Q and A video? Are all these recipes in your head or do you research the dishes and then make them? Thanks mate and all the best, oh, this is on the menu for this evening!
