Does the lamb have to be minced or could I just finely chop. I do have a food processor but thought I would just chop up the lamb add gravy and veges etc

will be fine, and save you the time of getting out and cleaning the processor.

Thanks that was the plan I hate cleaning the food processor so thought I would just chop up.

I finely chop mine. Mum minced hers, both ways are great.

When you've finished using a processor, place some warm or hot water - about a cupful, in it, lid on firmly and cover the spout part , and whizz. . makes it easier to clean. .

That's just what we had for dinner last night, but I used leftover roast beef. Whizzed the beef up in the food processor. Fried a big chopped onion in oil, added the beef, a can of tomatoes, a squirt of tomato sauce, some worcestershire sauce, a cup of beef stock and 2 bay leaves. Simmered for about 15 mins before putting in oven proof bowl, topped with cheesey mashed potatoes and baked at 200* til golden. Was yum!

I think you'll find that is cottage pie, but then who really cares as long as the end result is, as you say YUM ! !
