Panackelty

Main Serves 2 1h 15 min

This hearty dish from the northeast of England has been around forever and there's no definitive recipe; it's a great way of using up leftover meat or odd bits of veg. Legend has it that it was the fuel the Jarrow marchers survived on. It's good with buttered cabbage.
