Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or 400°F.

In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the Quorn mince to the pan and stir well. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add the frozen peas to the mixture and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 7

Meanwhile, boil the chopped potatoes in a large pot of salted water for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain thoroughly.

Step 8

Mash the potatoes with butter and milk until smooth and creamy. Stir in half the grated cheese, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 9

Spoon the Quorn mixture into a baking dish, spreading it evenly. Top with the mashed potatoes, spreading it out with a spatula or fork to cover the filling.
