1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a large pot of salted water.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
  • When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until fork tender, 15-20 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat. 
  • Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or water and mash until smooth.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
2
  • Meanwhile, cut the cauliflower into florets (like small trees). Halve any large florets.
  • Pop the florets onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the ground cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer.
  • Roast until golden brown and tender, 15-20 mins. Turn halfway through.
3
  • While the cauliflower cooks, roughly chop the chives (use scissors if easier).
  • Thinly slice the mushrooms.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Drain and rinse the lentils in a sieve.
4
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned, 5-6 mins.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Add the harissa and cook for 1 min more.
  • Add 50ml water (double for 4p), passata, lentils and muscat. Stir to combine then bring to the boil.
  • Reduce heat to medium and simmer until thickened, 8-10 mins.

TIP: Add a little water if it's too thick.

5
  • Once the cauliflower is cooked, stir it through the sauce, then remove from the heat.
  • Taste your filling and season if needed, then transfer to an appropriately-sized oven dish.
  • Top with an even layer of mash mixed with half the chives and sprinkle over the cheese.
  • Bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden and bubbling, 10-15 mins.
6
  • Divide your savoury pie between plates.
  • Finish with a sprinkling of the remaining chives.
