Two more days until New Year’s Eve and I’ve been reading about manifestations. I thought I might try it. If you write down your hopes and dreams, things you’d like to achieve, things you’d like to try out and then focus on them , who knows what might happen. Something I want to do is commit to making time for myself. Healthy body, healthy mind.
What are you going to commit to?
Why not call 01295 521306 and make a commitment to yourself by booking an appointment to visit the gym.

INGREDIENTS
500g beef mince (aim for higher fat 15-20%)
1 medium onion finely chopped
1 large carrot chopped into small pieces
1 celery stick chopped
1 clove garlic finely chopped
1 tablespoon (big spoon) tomato puree
500ml stock (chicken, beef or vegetable stock cube)
1 serving of swede or celeriac mash (see recipe)
Salt and ground black pepper
Thyme and 2 bay leaves (optional)
2 tablespoon (big spoon) Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoon (big spoon) oil to cook – olive oil, lard or beef dripping
Grated cheese to top - optional

INSTRUCTIONS
1) Heat your oil/fat of choice in a large saucepan.
2) Add the onions and stir until softened.
3) Add the beef mince and stir until browned.
4) Add the chopped carrots and celery and cook until soft – around 20 minutes.
5) Add the chopped garlic and tomato puree.
6) Make the stock using a stock cube and boiling water and add to the pan.
7) Add Worcestershire sauce, thyme and bay leaves (if using).
8) Reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered for around 30-40 minutes.
9) Discard the bay leaves if you can find them but fine to leave in (we treat it a bit like finding the money in a Christmas pudding at our house!).
10) The gravy should be thickened by now, but if not turn up the heat and leave cooking for a little longer.
11) Spoon the mixture into an oven proof bowl.
12) Top with your prepared celeriac or swede mash and sprinkle with cheese if using.
13) Cook in the oven at 200C for 30 minutes or until the top is golden.
