1 smoked gammon joint
800g tinned tomatoes (2x tins)
8 carrots (large)
2 onions
500g frozen peas
1 tbsp curry powder
10 black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
500g red lentils
1 tsp dried herbs
Chop the onions and peel and slice the carrots
Put in a large saucepan with the gammon shank, herbs, curry powder, peppercorns and bay leaves and red lentils
Add the tinned tomatoes and enough water (or stock) to cover the gammon shank
Bring to the boil and simmer for just over 2 hours
Add the frozen peas and return to the boil for 3 minutes to cook them
Take the shank out of the pan and remove the fat and the bone (I use these to make stock) and return the meat to the saucepan
This easily feeds a family of four - I then mix what is left over with pasta to make a second meal
