2) Leave to simmer gently for approx. 1 – 1.5hrs then add the chopped potatoes, bring back to the boil and cook until potatoes are softening
3) Thicken the sauce with gravy granules or cornflour and season with salt & pepper to taste (bear in mind the stock cube and gravy will contain salt so you shouldn’t need much extra) then transfer into a pie dish
