Cooking Steps

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. To prepare the ingredients, peel and chop the sweet potato into 2 cm pieces. Dice the brown onion and finely chop the celery and carrot (peeled). Pick the thyme leaves, peel and peel and crush the garlic. Drain and rinse the lentils. Grate the Cheddar cheese and wash the mixed salad leaves.

Place the sweet potato into a medium saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes.

Drain the sweet potato and return to the saucepan with the butter and a good seasoning of salt and pepper. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth.

Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the brown onion, celery, carrot and thyme and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the tomato paste, lentils, water and red wine vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a medium-low heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

Transfer the lentil mixture into a medium baking dish. Top with the sweet potato mash and sprinkle with the grated Cheddar cheese. Place under the grill for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden.

To serve, divide the lentil pie between plates and serve with mixed salad leaves.
