Potato Topped Beef and Mushroom Pie

A Winter warmer that the whole family will love!

Ingredients

olive oil
2 onions, peeled and diced
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic crushed
1kg potatoes, peeled and chopped
400g Cheery Tree Beef Mince
400g mushroom, sliced
2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
pepper
250ml beef stock
100ml milk
1 cup Barambah cheddar cheese, grated

Method

  1. Heat oil in a pan over medium to high heat. Cook onion and carrot for three minutes, stirring occasionally; add garlic and stir for 1 minutes.
  2. Place potatoes, covered with water in a large saucepan over high heat, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes until soft. Add mince to onion mixture and brown for 5 minutes, stirring to break up lumps.
  3. Sprinkle over flour, season with pepper and stir well; mix in mushrooms, thyme and add stock. Reduce heat to medium; simmer cooked for 15 minutes, or longer if time permits, stirring occasionally until thickened slightly.
  4. Drain cooked potatoes and mash with milk until smooth. Divide meat mixture between 4 small 1 ½ cup capacity ovenproof bowls and spread mash evenly over mince to the edge of each dish. Sprinkle with cheese and place under a preheated grill for 5 minutes or until browned lightly.
  5. Enjoy!
