Method

1./ Fry the leeks in a little butter and prepare the mashed potato. Cook the potatoes adding milk or cream according to preference. Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Stir the softenend leeks into the mash.

2./ Fry the onions in a little oil until softened and add the lamb mince and carrots. Begin to break this up and brown. Add the worcestershire sauce, herbs, tomato puree and cinnamon and cook for a few minutes. Add the flour and cook for a further 5 minutes on a low heat. Finally add the water and peas and cook for 10-12 mins until you have a thick sauce. Season to taste.

3./ Lightly grease a casserole dish and add the meat mixture, then cover with the potato and leek mash. Score with a fork and sprinkle with cheddar to cover the mash and cook in the oven for 30 minutes at gas mark 5 (220 degrees), or until the cheese has browned.

4./ Enjoy! A little brown sauce won't go amiss!
