My house smells

[MagnetsAndHangers]

of the most wonderful aroma of beef and ale casserole with dumplings!

Been bubbling away gently for 6 hours now!

Just put on the tatties then will mash them with mustard and cheese.

To be fair, and maybe to more deeply torture us, you should give the recipes or procedures for making your delicacies as we don't currently have smellovision.

ONly difference is I gave mine just over 6 hours at 170 degs, didnt bother with the celery, and added extra beef stock as I like lots of gravy.

Edit to add...........I added the dumplings after 3 1/2 hours
