Beef Shepherd’s Pie – Serves 2
Step 1:
Put the potatoes on to boil in salted water. Step 2:
heat a pan that can be used on a hotplate and under the grill. Step 3:
cook the meat with the onion, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon, until the meat has browned. Step 4:
add the carrot, peas, tomato puree, stock granules and worcester sauce, stir to mix and add just enough water to keep the mixture in the pan liquid. Step 5:
put a lid on the pan and cook for 5 minutes approx. Step 6:
sprinkle the flour over the mixture in the pan and stir to combine. Continue to cook for about two minutes, stirring from time to time. Step 7:
gradually pour about half a mug of water from the potato pan into the meat mixture and stir carefully. The liquid will thicken to make a ‘gravy’. Step 8:
when the potatoes are cooked, mash with a little butter or low fat spread, and milk. Step 9:
spoon the mashed potato over the meat in the pan. Step 10:
while everything in the pan is still hot, put it under the grill to brown.
