Method
Stir-fry the mince in two batches, using 1 – 2 T (15 – 30 ml) of canola oil per batch.
Keep the mince on one side and mix Meat Spice. Add Chilli & Garlic Seasoning in to the chopped onions.
Add a little more oil to the pan and sauté the seasoned onions until golden. Add the garlic, ground coriander and cumin. Stir-fry until spices are aromatic, ± 30 seconds.
Add the undiluted Beef Stock, tinned tomatoes, Tomato Pesto and water.
Bring to the boil and add the mince. Simmer slowly for 20 minutes. Add the peas and parsley, stir through and dish into an ovenproof dish big enough to accommodate the topping as well. The mince mixture can be made in advance.
For the topping, boil the sweet potatoes and regular potatoes together in ± 2 cups (500 ml) of water to which you have added the Seasoned Sea Salt. Cook until soft.
Drain. Mash until smooth. Add lemon zest and butter. Taste and add Potato Spice.
Incorporate the egg.
Spoon topping over mince.
Adjust oven rack to one shelf below the middle and preheat the oven to 180°C.
Bake for 35 minutes until golden brown.
Serve with green vegetables or a tossed salad and our Peach Apricot Chutney on the side.
