Celebrating frozen veg and store-cupboard staples, this is sure to become a firm family favourite. Mushrooms can be expensive, so I’m making use of a humble tin of mushroom soup to create big flavour without blowing the budget. Treat this as a principle recipe – ducking and diving to make use of what you’ve already got; feel free to mix up the meat, or make it entirely veggie by adding a handful of sliced mushrooms.
