above all, economical recipes for all the family.
I shall start with a traditional family recipe which my mother brought with her from the Emerald Isle.
Boiled mince.
Serves 4
Ingredients
500g Tesco Value Mince 1.90
Handful frozen peas 0.20
1kg Tesco Value potatoes 0.60
Put the mince in a saucepan with the peas. On no account add any seasoning at all, lest the finished dish be in any way palatable. Cover with water and boil for several hours, ensuring that you achieve the dull, lifeless grey colour so evocative of Irish cooking at its finest.
Do exactly the same with the spuds.
Slop the whole thing on chipped plates and eat, watching the wrestling on ITV to confirm just how depressing your miserable existence is.
Cost: 67 pence per miserable person.
, curries, steak, salad with wine n vinegar dressing, rare meat
It was tough in the ghetto.

So,good ole mum's solution was to f**k everything onto everyone's plate
I was raised on meals of spuds,chips,beans,cabbage,peas,chops and mince.
