Deliciously messy! Vegetarian Cottage Pie

Tasty vegetable and lentil base topped with mashed potato. Lovely healthy comfort food for a winter night :D Note: though the list of ingredients can at first be daunting, dont be put off. Most are just seasoning that can be added at your own pace.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃) F. Boil potatoes until soft, drain. Mash with butter, milk and parmesan cheese.

Fry onion and garlic with a little oil in a large saucepan until onion softens. Add curry powder and mustard powder and stir for one minute.

Add undrained tomatoes, spinach, vegetable stock, water, tomato paste, wine, mustard powder, lentils, carrot, oregano, soy and Worcestershire sauce.

Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add peas and parsley, simmer for 5 minutes.

Spoon mixture into a large casserole dish and spread mashed potato on top. Dot small blobs of margarine or butter over potato as this will make it brown nicely in the oven.

Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Stand pie for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with tomato sauce.

Deliciously messy!

Note:

Can also be used for individual cottage pies in small dishes, or for Sheppard�s pie (large or small) in pastry. Keeps well in the fridge, could be frozen without the potato.

The two different versions of pictures look both good, I think one is individual casserole dish, the other is a full serving size dish, both look great, thanks for sharing this excellent recipe with these two great pictures.

I see frozen spinach in the ingredients but no instructions in the recipe. Any ideas on whether this should be added to the mix or served on the side?

Just edited the recipe, and frozen spinach should be added after canned tomato, enjoy!
