Aromatic Lamb Shank Stew As with all stews, this is even better made in advance and reheated; for me, this only makes things easier.

Hard to beat a warming winter curry. Made a large chicken madras last week, before realising that the freezer was full, and I had no containers - curry for dinner for four days straight!

The critics have temporarily forgotten that they support free speech.

It's easier and cheaper to fly to Wrocław and use my friend's dentist.
