Steps:
- Heat half of the oil in a large frying pan or cast iron casserole dish.
- Brown the meat, which would take approximately 5 minutes, then remove from the pan. Place the meat in a sieve to remove excess fat.
- Using the same pan, add the remaining oil, then fry the onion, garlic, carrots, thyme and rosemary over a medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until the excess moisture has evaporated.
- Add the browned mince back into the pan along with the tomatoes and tomato puree. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add red wine and Worcestershire sauce and simmer until the liquid has been reduced by half.
- Pour in stock and bring it to a slow simmer. Continue to cook for 20-25 minutes. If the meat sauce doesn't seem thick enough, continue cooking for another 5-10 minutes.
- Stir in mushrooms and peas, then season to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 180˚C/fan 160˚C/356˚F/gas 4.
- Meanwhile, add the potatoes to a pan of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, which will take about 10-15 minutes. Drain then return to the pan and leave to steam dry.
- Pass the potatoes through a potato ricer then return the mash to the pan.
- Stir in the butter, cheese and egg yolk, then season to taste.
- Spoon the mince into a large ovenproof casserole dish and even out the layer.
- Top the mince with mash and level out with a fork. Run the fork along the mash to leave a ripple effect that will help the topping become crispy.
- Sprinkle over extra cheese, if you prefer, then place in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Serve immediately. It goes well with cauliflower cheese and braised red cabbage. Enjoy!

TRADITIONAL ENGLISH COTTAGE PIE WITH CHEESE AND LEEK TOPPING
Cottage pie, like its opposite lamb number, Shepherd's pie, was the ingenious idea of housewives many years ago, in order to create another warm and comforting meal usually from the Sunday Lunch left-overs! Cooked beef or lamb were diced or shredded and sometimes the vegetables were added to the meat mixture - such as peas or carrots. This recipe uses raw minced beef, but you could use minced cooked beef if you wish, I have added it as an alternative. The leeks were always added to the mashed potato topping when I was growing up - it was another way of utilising the leftovers! A bit like a Bubble and Squeak topping. I am not a lover of peas being added in my Cottage Pie, so I have suggested them as an option - I always prefer carrots as the vegetable to be added. Try to use mature Farmhouse Cheddar cheese for the topping - a little goes a long way, as it is so strong in flavour. The cheese is very luxurious, but takes this simple and comforting pie to a higher taste level, in my humble opinion! Serve bubbling hot straight from the oven with steamed cabbage, carrots or any seasonal vegetables and a jug of gravy.

- Stir the cooked leeks into the mashed potato mixture and give it all a good mix.
- Assemble:.
- Put the meat mixture into a large and deep well greased baking dish and spread the potato mixture on top; then sprinkle with the grated cheese. You can also use 4 - 6 smaller pie dishes if you wish.

ENGLISH COTTAGE PIE WITH CHEDDAR AND PARSNIP MASH
I made this last night and it went down a treat! The parsnips were a great addition, as well as giving an extra vegetable to your kiddies instead of just potatoes. My daughters cleaned their plates and have asked for it again tonight. I made the mince mixture in advance which cut down cooking time in the evening. You can make it even more nutritious by adding some more diced vegetables. From Delicious magazine
