The BBC reserves the right to edit comments submitted.

Lancashire hotpot
made with neck -end of lamb and cooked in a low oven over a long cooking time, as it was traditionaly made, and sometimes with oysters which is very traditional as oysters were very cheap. Traditionaly the mill workers of Lancashire used the cooling and idle bakers ovens in the afternoons, as most people did not own domestic ovens.

I just love Bubble and Squeak, the variation I like to use is the Mashed spuds, cabbage and carrot and nips, fried up, you can't beat it, you'd think you'd died and gone to heaven.
