This month we bring you a traditional family favourite.
Corned beef casserole followed by Apple and bramble crumble.
This is something I remember my Mum making when I was little, my Nana Lil and Nana Cora used to make it and it’s definitely a favourite in my house. It’s so simple, cheap, quick and tastes amazing. It can be easily adapted to individual preference too.
Enjoy!
