    2. Cover the saucepan and simmer for about 1 hour, until the meat is tender, adding water, if necessary, as the meat cooks.

    3. The mixture should be thick. As an alternative, brown the meat, onions and some bacon before adding the water.

    4. Remove the bone, season if necessary and allow the mixture to cook.

    5. Prepare the pastry (see next recipe) and line 2 8-inch tins.
