Venison and chorizo casserole

This is such a delicious, warming casserole, you can easily make it into a pie, using puff pastry too. Just line a pie dish with butter, then roll out the pastry, keeping some to top the dish. Line the dish with about two thirds of the party, and fill with the casserole, top with the remaining rolled out pastry, seal the edges and prick carefully. Brush with egg and bake in the oven at 200c for about 20 minutes.

‘Any ocassion’ batch cook mince

This is great for bolognaise , cottage pies, chilli, lasagne, and stuffing peppers too – freezable, so a great one to cook in a big pot and freeze in batches for when needed.
