Cooking steps

Make the Mash
1
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a large pot of salted water.
  • Peel the sweet potato and cut into 2cm chunks. Boil until fork tender, 15-20 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander or sieve. Return to the pot off the heat.
  • Add a knob of butter if you've got some and a little water or milk. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.

TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Simmer the Lentils
2
  • Trim the carrot, then coarsely grate (no need to peel). Drain and rinse the lentils.
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the carrot and fry for 2-3 mins, stirring occasionally.
  • Add lentils, chopped tomatoes, half the Italian herbs and Worcester sauce.
  • Simmer for 5-7 mins, until the sauce has thickened slightly. Season with salt, pepper and sugar to taste.
Assemble the Pie
3
  • Spoon the lentils into an oven dish (around 23cm x 15cm is ideal for 2p).
  • Carefully layer the mash over the filling, using the back of a spoon to smooth it out.
  • Top with the almonds.
  • When the oven is hot, pop onto the top shelf and bake for 10-12 mins. Leave the pie to rest for 5 mins before serving.
Make the Salad
4
  • Toss the salad leaves with a drizzle of oil. 
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve it Up
5
  • Dish up a hearty helping of lentil shepherd's pie.
  • Serve the salad alongside with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
