Vegan Shepherd's Pie

Hearty vegan mince, peas, carrots and fluffy mashed potatoes. All layered and baked until golden brown. This classic from the British kitchen simply tastes good to everybody!

Preparation

Peel 1 kg of potatoes (850 g when prepared), cut into equal-sized pieces and cook in salted water, covered.
For the filling, peel the onion and carrot and cut into 5 mm cubes.
Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan. Add the diced carrot and onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
Now add the garlic, soy sauce, peas and vegan mince and fry everything for 1-2 minutes.
Mix 160 g vegan raclette with the vegetables. Then smooth the filling in the pan and set aside.
Mash the potatoes while they are still hot or press them through a potato ricer.
Add 300 g water, the salt, the oil and the No Moo, Dezent. Mix everything thoroughly and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Spread the mashed potato over the filling. Coat the surface of the mashed potato with 40 g vegan raclette.
Bake the pan with the shepherd's pie in the middle of the oven at 200 °C (preheated, fan oven) for 25 minutes until golden brown.
Leave the pie to set for a few minutes before enjoying.

The shepherd's pie can also be made in a casserole dish.
