Okay... while the baby slept and the 5yr old played an online game I scoured my cupboards and I found some gravy powder.
There is MAYBE a tablespoon if I'm lucky but hopefully that will be enough.
I think it will be okay and I can always improve it the next time I cook it when we aren't broke and I can buy some extra ingredients.
I spent our last $70 today and was able to get nappies, aloe vera tissues (a splurge but BOTH the boys are sick with colds and they were on special), toilet paper, milk, butter, and a bit of fruit and veg...
Hubby has a HUGE job coming up and we are just waiting for his client's finance company to pay us!!
I will try to post again tonight to let you all know how it turned out!
Thanks again for all the help...
Just an update on how it turned out... my husband loved it and the boys absolutely polished their plates clean! I deem it a success!!
A few things to tweak... it was a tad on the greasy side so I suspect I used too much olive oil to cook the onions and brown the mince as I wasn't sure how much oil I would get naturally from the lamb... and I didn't have enough potatoes but other than that it was perfect! Thanks so much for helping me figure out something new for dinner!!
