Egluntyne Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Here you are. Feeds 6 Time to prepare 15 minutes Time to cook Approximately 1 hour 40 minutes - 2 hours Oven temperature Gas mark 4, 180°C, 350°F Ingredients 450g (1lb) lean minced beef 100g (4oz) lamb’s liver, finely chopped 100g (4oz) streaky bacon, finely chopped 1 small onion, peeled and grated 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed 15ml (1tbsp) freshly chopped parsley 10ml (2tsp) fresh thyme leaves 10ml (2tsp) freshly chopped sage 50g (2oz) fresh white or brown breadcrumbs 10ml (2tsp) English mustard Salt and pepper Onion Gravy: 15ml (1tbsp) sunflower oil 2 large onions, peeled and finely chopped 15ml (1tbsp) plain or sauce flour 300ml (1/2pint) ale 600ml (1pint) good, hot beef stock Dash Worcestershire or brown sauce 10ml (2tsp) dried mixed herbs Make Prepare the onion gravy; heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions and cook over a moderate heat for 4-5 minutes. Add the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Gradually stir in the ale, stock, Worcestershire or brown sauce, seasoning and dried mixed herbs. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Make the faggots; in a large bowl mix together the faggot ingredients and shape into 12 golf ball-sized balls. Transfer to a 1.2L (2pint) rectangular ovenproof dish or roasting tin and carefully pour over the gravy. Cover with foil and cook in a preheated oven for 11/2-2 hours. 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time, remove the foil and return to the oven. Eat Serve with a creamy combination of mashed potatoes and spring onions. Tip If preferred omit the ale and increase the quantity of stock to 850ml (11/2pint). Serve any leftover faggots cold as a sandwich filling or with crusty bread and a green salad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Thank you very much Egluntine. It must have taken you ages to type it out I think the preparation time of 15 mins is a bit optimistic, but they sound delish and I will try them over the weekend. Cinnamon the link to Dan's faggots doesn't seem to work any more Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon the link to Dan's faggots doesn't seem to work any more Tessa I cheated.....I copied and pasted. :lol: I think it will be the same recipe as Daniels....although Cinnamons link doesn't seem to work...but it is from the "Tuck In" series. I made them once at Egluntine Towers. They went down well as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
