Instructions

Get Started
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Bring a large saucepan of water with 1/2 tsp salt to the boil for the potatoes.

Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel). Trim the carrots, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.

Pop the carrots onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. 

When the oven is hot, roast the carrots on the top shelf until tender, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.

Fry the Onion
2

When your pan of water is boiling, add the potatoes and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-20 mins. 

Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan with a tight-fitting lid on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins.

While the onion fries, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Bring on the Beef
3

Once the onion has softened, add the garlic and fry until fragrant, 1 min.

Stir in the passata, red wine stock paste, Worcester sauce, mixed herbs and the beef along with the juices from the packet, then add the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).

Bring to the boil, then simmer on low with the lid on until tender enough to shred with a fork, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure the beef is piping hot throughout.

Once tender, remove the lid and shred the beef. 

Make the Mash
4

When the carrots have 5 mins left, drizzle over the honey (see pantry for amount) and toss to coat, then return to the oven for the remaining time, 5 mins.

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat. Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk (if you have any) and mash until smooth.

Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid to keep warm.

Grill your Pie
5

When the carrots are cooked, remove from the oven and cover to keep warm. Turn on your grill to high.

Stir the butter (see pantry for amount) into the beef filling. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Transfer the beef filling to an appropriately sized ovenproof dish. Spoon over the mash in an even layer. Use the back of a fork to make ridges in the mash.

Grill your pie until golden and bubbling, 6-7 mins.

Serve Up
6

Share the pulled beef cottage pie between your bowls.

Serve the honey roasted carrots alongside.

Enjoy!
