Either put the casserole in the oven with a lid on for 45 minutes at 180 degrees, or slow cook on high for 3.5 hours, or low for 9 hours.
Meanwhile you can make the dumplings and add the in the last 30 mins if cooking.
In a mixing bowl rub together the flour and butter together until it has the consistency of breadcrumbs then add the herbs and mix.
Gradually add water to form a dough, then mould in to dough balls. Add them to the casserole in the last 30 mins of cooking with the lid on.
Serve on its own, or with crusty rolls. Delicious!
