    I did “make it up as I go” but used this recipe as a starting point. Thanks Paulene, another winner.

  2. Hi Paulene.
    I’m using a blade roast with your recipe – hoping that will work the same. I don’t have Worcestershire sauce so would beef stock be ok to add? Also no tomato paste so I’m adding half a jar of pasta sauce instead. Do you think ok?

      Hi Linny

      Just seeing this comment here now 🙂
      This one isn’t my own creation, this one is Susan’s lovely dish!
      Both Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste are important to the overall taste. Would you be able to get some?

    Love the heading because that’s me for sure.
    Recipe is simple and delicious. I followed the recipe (except, sadly I didn’t have mushrooms of any description) I added a tsp of Vegemite , and a little chilli.
    Served with Penne pasta and broccolini.
    YUM
