• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. • Drain and return to the pan. Add the butter and milk, then season generously with salt. Mash until smooth.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled! Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• While the potato is cooking, grate the carrot. Finely chop celery. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast slivered almonds, tossing, until golden, 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the carrot.
• Return the frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot and celery until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add dried oregano (see ingredients) and beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Reduce the heat to medium, then add beef-style stock powder, Worcestershire sauce (if using) and the water. Stir well to combine and cook until slightly reduced, 2-4 minutes. Season to taste
• Preheat the grill to medium-high. Transfer the beef mixture to a baking dish, then spread the mashed potato over the top, smoothing out with the back of a spoon. • Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese and grill pie until the cheese is melted and golden, 5-10 minutes.
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling the cheese on top.
• While the pie is grilling, thinly slice radish. • In a medium bowl, add a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add baby spinach leaves and radish and toss to coat.
• Divide beef and cheesy mash pie and radish salad between plates. • Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over salad and sprinkle with toasted almonds. Enjoy!
