I'd forgotten all about Pobs!I must admit I didn't care too much for it, but it was filling and hot.
We also used to have meat and potato pie.I still love it.The Lancashire version was a stew of a little meat onions and potatoes in a rich gravy. It was cooked in a very large casserole or very deep bowl and had a thick pastry crust overlapping the top of the bowl. This crust would often sag into the gravy in the centre.Served with pickled red cabbage.Gorgeous!
