As Episode VIII starts filming, one Japanese woman has taken it upon herself to recreate one of the greatest (and greediest) Star Wars characters.
Yuki, who cooks and posts recipes of mainly Japanese dishes on her site Yukitchen, has now set out how to make a British shepherd's pie - with an edible statue of Jabba on top of it.

Yuki introduces her recipe with the explanation: "I've always had a thing for chubby creatures, regardless of what they look like. Jabba is a large slug-like alien who tied Princess Leia up and treated her like a slave.
"I know that he is a bad guy, but look at him! He is so cute and chubby with his big belly filled with secrets. And when I smell secrets, I just wanna cut them open and see what's inside!"
Don't we all.
And even better, this is a vegan shepherd's pie for all those non-meat eaters.
Yuki has previously created a dish of houmous resembling Chewbacca, but it isn't as intricate as Jabba.
