Try these tasty individual mince pies with a pumpkin and potato mash topping.
Ingredients:
  • 75.08 gm olive oil
  • 750g minced beef
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 2 carrots, trimmed, peeled, grated
  • 1 celery stick, finely chopped
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 91.58 gm tomato paste
  • 24.40 gm Worcestershire sauce
  • 255.00 gm beef stock
  • 750g potatoes, peeled, chopped
  • 650g butternut pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, diced
  • 90g butter
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan over high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of oil until sizzling. Add in the mince and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes until beautifully browned. Transfer the cooked mince to a plate.
  • Lower the heat to medium and drizzle in the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a saucepan. Add onion, carrots, celery, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Sauté while stirring frequently for 5 minutes.
  • Mix in the paste, sauce, stock, and mince until well combined. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and let it simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard the bay leaf. Divide the mixture into 4 ovenproof dishes with a capacity of 2 cups each and place them on a baking tray.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Boil the potatoes and pumpkin in salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and return them to the saucepan over low heat, shaking for 1 minute until excess water evaporates. Remove from heat and mash with 60g of butter, salt, and pepper.
  • Cover the mince mixture with the mashed potatoes, then dot with the remaining 30g of butter. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve and enjoy.
