Plant-Based Braised Meat Shepherd's Pie

with Pangrattato & Tomato Salad

Who said shepherd's pie is just for meat eaters? In this meat-free version, we've swapped beef for tender plant-based, slow braised 'meat'. It's a mouthful, we know, and a surprisingly good one, making for a flavourful filling which you'll top with creamy, garlicky mash, plus a sprinkle of pangrattato for some crunch. Serve with a juicy tomato salad for an extra pop of colour and to balance out the richness.

• Boil the kettle. Peel potato and cut into large chunks. Half-fill a medium saucepan with the boiled water and heat over high heat. • Cook potato in the boiling water until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and set aside. • Return saucepan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook garlic paste until fragrant, 1 minute. • Return potato to pan. Add the plant-based butter, the plant-based milk and a pinch of salt. Mash until smooth.

TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled!
