600ml (1pt) Yorkshire Bitter,
5ml (1tsp) Brown sugar,
5ml (1tsp)Wholegrain mustard,
15ml (1tbsp) Gravy granules,

dish.
2. Mix together the Yorkshire Bitter, Brown sugar, Wholegrain mustard
and Gravy granules, pour over the meat. Add 1 bay leaf and stir

egg and bake for 2 hours.

cover with foil to prevent burning for the remainder of the cooking
time.
