The busy Christmas period may be over, but there's no respite for Mrs Crocombe and the servants. Today, our Victorian cook is preparing 'Sanders', a pastry-less dish of lamb and potato sometimes known as cottage or shepherd's pie. A hearty winter dish. English Heritage is a charity that cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites.

Mince the meat (by hand if possible) and season it well. 2. Mix with the gravy or stock, just enough to moisten it. 3. Grease a dish with butter or lard and layer in some mashed potato. 4. Top this with minced meat, and finish with another layer of potato. 5. Mark with a fork and bake for 45 minutes or until piping hot in the centre.
