Hi, My name is Dia, and I am a brain surgery survivor many times over. I have been diagnosed over the years with, in addition to my Dia’s Crazy Mixed Up Anything Goes Shepherds’ Pie
Posted by Administrator on January 15th, 2009. Filed under: Dairy Free and Vegan, Vegetarian.
I was basically using up all of the vegetables I had left over from this past week, since tomorrow is market day here where I live and usually the day I buy all my fresh fruit and veg. I came up with this wonderfully delicious Shepherds’ Pie that you can either have vegetarian or with minced meat.
1 can of chick peas
1 bag of frozen peas
2 cups of chopped baby corn
1 sweet red pepper
6 mini orange peppers
1 pound of minced Quorn (vegetarian)
4 chopped shallots
2 cups Bisto Favorite Gravy or Vegetable Stock
4 large potatoes
Preheat your oven to 180° Celsius (345° Fahrenheit)
Chop all of the peppers and put in a large bowl with baby corn, peas, chick peas and chopped shallots.
Mix everything together with your hands.
Bong it all in a large frying pan and fry for 5 minutes.
Add in the minced Quorn and stir for a further 5 minutes.
Pour in the gravy or stock and let mixture simmer for 10 minutes.
While it is simmering make the mashed potatoes for the top of the pie.
Peel and boil 4 large potatoes in a pot for 20 minutes and then either mash or rice the potatoes. If you rice them they will come out nice and crispy when the pie is done.
Take a large casserole dish and pour in the vegetable and mince mixture.
Top it off with a nice thick layer of the mashed potatoes.
Bake in the oven for 35 minutes.
Enjoy!!
