Panackelty

Panackelty is a popular English casserole that is especially popular in County Durham and Sunderland. It consists of slowly cooked meat (typically lamb chops or corned beef) and root vegetables such as onions, carrots, and potatoes, although there are numerous recipe variations throughout the region, so the type of meat and vegetables may vary. The dish is cooked in a pan which is placed in an oven at a low temperature, hence the name. It is believed that panackelty was invented out of necessity as a frugal and hearty dish.
