Creamy, scrumptious Sweet Potato Dauphinoise, such dreamy comfort food is a perfect side dish anytime.

The original recipe uses potatoes but my take is to use sweet potatoes, or kumara, as we call them downunder.  Personally I just prefer the taste and I think it makes the dish more creamier. Regardless, if potatoes are on your primal/paleo menu use them if you prefer or even mix the two.

The dish has a disturbing history, involving song birds eaten whole.  However, I am recommending this to be served with a simple meat dish such as lamb cutlets or a perfectly cooked steak instead!  Add some broccoli, steamed and with a smattering of freshly ground nutmeg.

This is one of those dishes that improve their flavour as time goes on.  So if you have any leftover they are totally delicious fried up for breakfast the next day with bacon and eggs!

Another old-fashioned, comfort food dish is Shepherd’s Pie.  Historically made to use up any left over meat, it dates back to 1790’s.  There are a number of different variations so when it is made with beef  it’s called Cottage Pie and if it is made with lamb, then it’s Shepherd’s pie.  That is because shepherd’s look after sheep – how cute is that?

This particular recipe is originally from a well-known diet company, and although it was relatively tasty as a low fat version, there always seemed to be something missing.  Pretty obvious what was missing, it was the fat!  So adding this back in as butter, cream and cheese not only makes the dish look 100% more enticing, the meal itself leaves you feeling totally satisfied and, not surprisingly, rather full!

Ok then being July it’s still winter in New Zealand and as a nation we are known to have way more sheep than people. Although maybe that has changed now that we grow so much wine, however, I digress! 

So being primal/paleo or just plain meaty inclined how best to keep out the cold than with a comforting dish of melt in your mouth, tender lamb shanks.  Add to this meat falling off the bone deliciousness, some simple steamed broccoli and to mop up the tasty juices, a side dish of  lovely roasted vegetables, mashed sweet potato or dreamy creamy cauliflower. Bliss!
