Stovies are made using the leftover dripping and gravy from a roast. They are a regular Monday dish in many Scottish households. Chopped pieces of cooked meat, poultry or game can also be added.

Method
Peel the potatoes and slice thickly. Peel and thinly slice the onion. Melt the dripping in a heavy frying pan, add the onion and fry for a few moments. Add the sliced potatoes and turn them in the hot fat. Season with salt and pepper and add any chopped meat. Pour over the gravy or water – there should be just enough to cover the base of the pan and prevent the stovies from sticking.
