Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7
Boil a kettle, then peel the potatoes and cut them into small bite-sized pieces
Chop the Brussels sprouts into quarters
Add the chopped potatoes to a pot of boiled water, bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for an initial 10 min, then add the sprouts and cook for 2-3 min further or until everything is fork tender
2
Once the potatoes and sprouts are done, drain and return them to the pot
Meanwhile, re-boil a kettle
Peel and finely chop the red onion[s]
Top, tail, peel and dice the carrot[s]
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
3
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the chopped onion, carrot and garlic and cook for 3-4 min or until beginning to soften
Meanwhile, dissolve the Kallo beef stock cube[s] and tomato paste in 200ml [350ml] boiled water and stir in the Marmite – this is your tomato stock
4
Once the vegetables have softened, add the beef mince and cook for 3-4 min or until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go
Grate the cheddar cheese
Once the beef is browned, add the tomato stock to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat
Season with a grind of pepper and cook for 4-5 min or until slightly thickened – this is your beef mixture
5
While the beef mixture thickens, return the drained potatoes and sprouts to a low heat with a large knob of butter, a splash of milk and a generous pinch of salt and pepper
Mash until smooth – this is your sprout mash
6
Once thickened, transfer the beef mixture to an oven-proof dish
Top with the sprout mash and sprinkle over the grated cheese
Put the dish in the oven for 15-20 min or until golden brown and bubbling – this is your festive cottage pie
7
Whilst the pie is in the oven, re-boil a kettle
Cut the broccoli into florets
Add the broccoli florets to a pot with plenty of boiled water and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, cook for 3-4 min or until tender with a slight bite, then drain and season with a pinch of salt
Serve the festive cottage pie with the broccoli to the side and enjoy!
