Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt.
• Cut potato into large chunks.
• Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, finely chop onion, carrot and garlic.
• Pick thyme leaves (see ingredients).
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook beef mince and diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes.
• Add onion and carrot, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes.
• Add garlic & herb seasoning and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium-high, then stir in thyme leaves, Worcestershire sauce, chicken-style stock powder and the water.
• Simmer until bubbling, 1-2 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and stir in baby leaves, until slightly wilted. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a dash of water if the mince looks dry!
• Return saucepan to medium-high heat, add the butter and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Remove from heat. Return potato to the pan and toss to coat. Lightly crush with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help crush the potatoes!
