You can travel the world and eat in the finest restaurants, but, in the majority of cases, the greatest food you ever tasted was that which was put in front of you by your parents.

The taste provides a memory explosion.

Beef olives simply the best!

Never heard of them until I moved to Scotland in 1977. They were on the menu of the hotel I stayed at and after enquiring as to what they were, ordering and then tasting I was hooked.

Used to get mates rates from the local butcher in the garden centre where I worked.

Beef olives are sausage meat in the middle wrapped in thin steak. I brown mine and then cook in the oven with an onion gravy .

You also get olives that are filled with haggis but the traditional ones are sausage meat.

I love stovies but have never attempted to make them. I wish I had a good, old fashioned recipe for them.

I first had these when we made them in school domestic science lesson. When we were told what we were making the following week I remember thinking I had never heard of olives being beef Still enjoy them today.

Beef olives I from this thread now know are a very Scottish thing ( our Irish MC loves+them )
Basically very very thin nowhere’s where it might get lost in translation popeseye stake
Ie beef ham or Rump cut as thin as bacon
Any kind of sausage
Sausage must be skin free and rolled in to a cylinder shape then wrap
In the thin thin steak brown with out fat aminute or 2 transfer to slow cooker covervwith water a dash or 2 with Lea and Perrin someof your favorite gravy granusle or tinned tomatoes
Set on low 7/8 hours ..serve with mash potatoes carrot and what ever
Other winter veg
I take the gravy off skim any fat off and as we like thick gravy reduce and or server or thicken it makes a great prepare freeze and pop back I;the slow cooker if you go thebrowni g stage
I take it out night before add the sliced potatoes root veg Bmug it in the slow cooker on low high or in my new timed air switches on thenafter the time goes on to war keeps it perfect for an other 4 hours a great buy

Beef stew and dumplings, I always make a few days in advance so the beef fully soaks in the flavours.
Chicken & ham pie.
Quorn & chickpea curry , make in batches so there’s always one in the freezer
Homemade lasagne, I’m now actually using quorn mince which is a good substitute
An all round favourite bangers mash gravy & fried onions
