Lobby is the name potters gave to a simple stew. We both grew up eating it most weeks. My Grandparents always had a big pan of lobby on their stove & my mum used to make it in her pressure cooker.... Our version of the North Staffordshire dish is so cheap & easy to make - we love it!
We use onions, garlic, lots of root vegetables, pulses, some greens & fresh herbs. You can add stock , miso or soy sauce, but cooking it slowly for a couple of hours just makes it taste so good & finishing off with a sprinkle of black pepper & the juice of half a lemon.
Served in large bowls, with some home made bread fresh out of the oven... Makes a great warming meal!
Hope everyone is keeping warm!

Dreamer - That's really interesting, how funny that the name is similar in Lancashire!
Scarlet - Dumplings are great, especially when you need warming up!
Gai - That's probably the first time the word quaint has ever been associated with Stoke-on-Trent!
Kath - We love a spicy soup, especially with a bit of coconut!
