NO-FUSS SHEPHERD'S PIE

Ingredients:
1 tbsp sunflower oil
1 large onion, chopped
2-3 medium carrots, chopped
500g pack lamb mince (about 1.1 lb) – you can also substitute ground beef
2 tbsp tomato purée
large splash Worcestershire sauce
500ml beef stock (about 2 cups)
900g potatoes, cut into chunks (2 lb)
85g butter (a little less than ¼ lb – 1 stick)
3 tbsp milk

Method:
Heat 1 tbsp sunflower oil in a medium saucepan, then soften 1 chopped onion and 2-3 chopped carrots for a few mins.
When soft, turn up the heat, crumble in 500g lamb or beef and brown, tipping off any excess fat.
Add 2 tbsp tomato purée and a large splash of Worcestershire sauce, then fry for a few mins.
Pour over 500ml beef stock, bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 40 mins, uncovering halfway.

Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180C/ fan 160C/ gas 4 (350 degrees F), then make the mash. Boil the 900g potato, cut into chunks, in salted water for 10-15 mins until tender. Drain, then mash with 85g butter and 3 tbsp milk.

Put the mince into an ovenproof dish, top with the mash and ruffle with a fork. The pie can now be chilled and frozen for up to a month.

Bake for 20-25 mins until the top is starting to colour and the mince is bubbling through at the edges. To bake from frozen, cook at 160C/fan 140C/gas 3 (350 degrees F) for 1 hr-1 hr 20 mins until piping hot in the centre. Flash under the grill to brown, if you like.

Leave to stand for 5 mins before serving.
