This chill-busting chilli will get you there. We've put the breaks on this classic dish that's typically made with mince and, instead, subbed in slow-cooked lamb shanks. As they gently simmer away to tender perfection, we throw in a touch of smokiness, a scattering of beans and some delicious sweet potato.

With those sweet leeks, fragrant rosemary and succulent chicken, this dish is going to work it all out by itself once you pop it in the oven. You need only put in a bit of effort up top to make it happen, so don't rush the browning. Take your time to get the skin crisp and golden to release all those savouryflavours that will nudge this dish into the comfort zone.
