Hi Wulliie

Google produced over 13,000 hits for "Welsh cawl" but here's one from a well known TV cook in Wales

As you rightly say, fundamentally the essential thing is lamb and veg

Apparently, you can bung in any meat you like, even mixed meats. I once had a cawl (made by the lovely Mrs Spook) which had a small joint of lamb and a small joint of pork (a gammon joint if I remember correctly) and some onions, swede and potatoes. You take out the meat joints when the cawl is cooked, eat the broth as a starter, then tuck into the meat, which should be very tender by now. Nothing with it but lots of crusty bread - MMMMMMMMM!

Hi , My Mum always made it with beef (Brisket or stewing beef)most veg especially leeks stock and away you go leave it on simmer for as long as you want add potato 45 mins before you want to eat it as they will break up if in to early.
better on the 2nd or 3rd day,as mentioned before serve with thick bread and butter.
My Mum comes from west wales Llanabyther originally and thats how they make it there.
Im going to make some now its been mentioned,with veg from my garden Yum Yum.
Re the Lamb maybe its a regional variation?

Hi Chris,i,m making Cawl today,and when i come to think of it,"after you mentioned about the 2nd/3rd day,was better,my gran used to make,what is called "Kale",up here in Scotland,and the ingredients are almost identical, she used boiling beef,neeps tatties carrots,onion,barley,and my Aunt in the Ukraine makes Borscht, which is almost identical,the only difference being,she,uses pork belly,
I will post my results tomorrow,  "If I,m still alive" {-)
BTW,I saw the"Hairy Bikers" make it by the Rver Wye,on the TV the other night,
