Quorn Shepherd’s Pie
Report
A delicious, easy, family friendly classic with a twist, this Quorn Shepherd’s Pie uses Quorn mince instead of the traditional lamb, meaning this version is both vegetarian and much quicker to prepare - perfect for busy weeknights!

Ingredients
- 1 kg potato peeled and chopped into smallish chunks, baking variety
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 150 g chestnut mushrooms chopped
- 2 carrot halved lengthways and then sliced thickly, medium
- 1 leek or ½ a big one, sliced fairly finely, small
- 100 g mature cheddar cheese grated
- 20 g butter
- milk a splash
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 150 g Quorn mince
- 1 vegetable stock cube (I use Oxo)
- 400 g canned chopped tomatoes I use Cirio
- 1 tablespoon tomato puree
- pea or whatever you like!, to serve
- sweetcorn or whatever you like!, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C / 180C fan / gas mark 6 / 400F.
- Peel, chop and boil the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, until soft.
- Meanwhile, fry the chopped mushrooms in the olive oil on a fairly high heat until they start to go brown. Lower the heat and add the chopped carrots and sliced leek and fry gently for 3-4 minutes.
- Add the Quorn mince, some black pepper to taste, a veggie stock cube and fry for 1 minute. Add in the tin of tomatoes, plus half a tin of water and the tomato puree. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to the boil and then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- While the tomato mixture is simmering, drain the potatoes and mash them with 75g of the cheddar cheese plus the butter, a splash of milk and salt and pepper to taste.
- Put the tomato mix at the bottom of a deep oven proof dish and spread the mashed potato on top.
- Sprinkle on the remaining cheese and put the shepherd’s pie in the oven for 15 minutes, until it is bubbling and brown on top.
- Just before the shepherd’s pie is ready, cook some peas and / or sweetcorn to go with it – or whatever veg you fancy!
