Cooking Steps
ā¢ Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. ā¢ Peel potato and cut into large chunks. ā¢ Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. ā¢ Add the milk and half the butter to potato and season with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.
ā¢ Meanwhile, finely chop brown onion. ā¢ Grate carrot. ā¢ Pick thyme leaves. ā¢ Drain and rinse lentils.
ā¢ Preheat the grill to high. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. ā¢ Cook onion and carrot, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. ā¢ Add thyme, tomato paste and half the garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. ā¢ Add lentils, vegetable stock pot, the water and simmer, until thickened, 2-3 minutes.
ā¢ Transfer lentil filling to a baking dish. Top with potato topping, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle over Parmesan cheese. ā¢ Grill until just golden, 8-10 minutes.
ā¢ Meanwhile, trim green beans and baby broccoli. ā¢ Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. ā¢ Cook green beans and baby broccoli, until tender, 4-5 minutes. ā¢ Add remaining garlic paste and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute. Season.
ā¢ Divide the lentil shepherd's pie and garlic greens between plates. Enjoy!
