INGREDIENTS

CHEF’S TIP

Rough up the top of the mash with a fork before baking for extra golden, crispy edges.

HOW TO MAKE IT

  1. Heat the oven to 190°C. Boil the potatoes until tender, drain and mash with butter, milk and half the cheese.
  2. Heat the oil and brown the mince. Add the onion and carrots and cook for 6 minutes.
  3. Prepare the cook-in-sauce according to the packet directions, add it with the mixed vegetables and simmer until thickened.
  4. Transfer the mince to a baking dish, top with mash and remaining cheese, and bake for 25 minutes until golden.

GOOD TO KNOW

  1. Freezer friendly? YES
  2. Leftovers? – Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
