Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Cook chopped potato in the boiling water over high heat until easily pierced with a fork, 8-10 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the butter and milk to potato and season with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.

2

• Meanwhile, finely chop celery and onion. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook veggie mince, onion and celery, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned and softened, 6-7 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, add Kiwi spice blend and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Stir in chicken-style stock powder and the water. • Simmer until bubbling, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.

3

• Preheat grill to high. • Transfer the mince mixture to a baking dish, then evenly top with mashed potato topping. • Sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese. Grill pie until lightly golden, 8-10 minutes.

4

• While the pie is grilling, in a medium bowl, combine baby spinach & rocket mix with a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste. • Divide smokey veggie mince and cheesy potato top pie between plates. Serve with spinach and rocket salad. Enjoy!
