Method

  • Fry the onion and mince until softened. Add the carrots and remaining ingredients (minus the potato, milk and butter) and simmer for around 35 minutes or until cooked.

  • Transfer to an ovenproof dish and remove the bay leaves.

  • Cook the cubed potato and then mash with the butter an milk and add seasoning to taste.

  • Put the mash on top of the mince and bake in the oven (gas 6) until the top is cripsy. You can add a bit more butter to the top for added crunch.

  • For complete naughtiness - sprinkle grated cheese all over the top and grill tummy.

  • Add Brown sauce...
