The food train

Good evening peeps! Made this delicious meal earlier using my lovely mother's recipe. This is English food for you and even though it might not look very appetizing to some, it does taste amazing.

 

300g mince

2 yellow onions

2-3 carrots

2 tomtoes

1 big pinch of salt

1 big pinch of black pepper

 

2 tablespoons of Maizena

2 tablespoons (the ones you use to eat with) of Bisto gravy powder

 

6-8 potatoes

Butter and milk

1dl grated strong cheese

 

Peel and boil your potatoes in a good pinch of salt.

 

Brown your mince with your chopped onion.

Season with salt and pepper.

Add your chopped tomatoes.

Add your sliced carrots.

Add water so it just covers the contents of the pan and let simmer for 8 minutes.

 

Mix the bisto and maizena together in a bowl, add a splash of water and mix until smooth.

Add another cup of water and mix till even.

Take your pan off the heat and stir the bisto mixture into your mince. Keep stiring so there are no clumps in there.

Bring to the boil again and then turn down to simmer for another 8 minutes.

Taste (!) and add water if you want more gravy.

 

Mash your potatoes with butter and milk and a tad of salt.

Mix your mash with the cheese.

 

Use a casserole dish and pour your mince into the bottom.

Cover it with the mash - be careful to not press down to much on the mince as it will pour over the sides.

Bake in the oven for 20-25 minuter in 200-225°C.

 

Serve with boiled/steamed vegetables like broccoli, carrots, peas, brussel sprouts and beans.

 

Enjoy!
