Economical, tasty hotpot. Pefect winter warmer, cook gently and serve with crusty bread

First reheat your oven to 170 C / Gas 3. You’ll need 2 x 500ml capacity round oven proof dishes for the individual hotpots.
Heat a fry pan with olive oil and add the onion. Cook for a few minutes then add the cabbage and carrot. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes over a medium heat.
Add the mince and garlic. Mix well and cook gently for another 5 minutes.
Add the salt and pepper, paprika and stock. Bring to the boil. Transfer to the individual dishes. Arrange the potato slices on top. Cover each dish with foil and place the dishes onto a baking tray.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour. Check halfway through ensuring the liquid has not dried up too much – it shouldn’t do but if it does then add a tablespoon of hot water gently into the individual pots.
After an hour, remove the foil and cook for a further 30 minutes to brown the top or until the potatoes are tender. Remove from the oven.
Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving with a big chunk of fresh crusty bread.

This recipe is enough for two individual pots, so enough for two days, or invite a friend round to share your winter warming supper.
