SponsoredBaron de Ley Club Privado Reserva Rioja
The Baron de Ley winery was founded by a prestigious group of Rioja professionals in 1985. They were quite unique in their approach as they modelled the winery on a Medoc chateaux, which was a pioneering move at that time for producers in the Denominacion de Origen Calificada Rioja. This wine is aged in new oak casks for 20 months prior to resting in the bottle for 2 years before release. It has definite claret qualities; the nose is layered with ripe cherry, toasty oak and a touch of cigar box. Lively, ripe, red fruit with dried tobacco and nutty vanilla overtones, round tannins with an expressive woody finish. Rioja wine can be excellent value for money and has terrific cellaring potential. Buy this wine if you like: Well rounded reds, with soft fruit and toasty character, easy drinking for upfront pleasure.
Description
Maybe not of today's taste, but it seemed to be popular in the 1900's and they must have thrived on it, or I (and you!) wouldn't be here!

Peel and slice the onion put in a small saucepan with the dripping or margarine, fry for 5 mins. Add the kidney, cut into small pieces, a good seasoning of salt and pepper and enough water to cover. Simer very gently until the kidney is tender. Mix the ketchup with the flour and add this to the kidney, stir well until it thickens.
Peel and cut the potatoes into even sized pieces, boil in salted water until cooked. mash the potatoes with milk and butter until fluffy.
Place a layer of potatoes into a pie dish, then the kidney mixture topped off by another layer of potatoes.
Cook in a hot oven until the top is browned.
Chef's Tips
Althought the Welsh title for this dish translates to "Dish Cloth Pudding" the sub title is Potato & Kidney Pudding, which sounds marginally more appetising! I'm not sure why it's referred to as a pudding, but I've copied it faithfully from the original, so it's not for me to re-name it.
