In a large non stick frying pan, or ovenproof dish suitable to go on the hob too, spray the surface with fry lite.
Next add the minced beef, diced onion, garlic and fry until brown for approximately 10 minutes
Next add the grated carrot, mushrooms and crumbled OXO cubes, fry for a further 10 minutes, stirring occasionally
Add the chopped tomatoes, then fill the tin with water and add that too. Finally season and add the dried herbst)
At this point you can either, pop the lid on and bang in a medium oven for an hour, or leave gently simmering on the top for an hour (the mince will then be lovely and soft
Whilst the mince is in the oven, boil the potatoes and sweet potatoes until soft- in the same pan for approx 20 minutes
Steam the broccoli onto of the potatoes, if you have a steamer, otherwise boil for 10-15 minutes (set aside)
When the potatoes are tender, mash with a splash of milk and season with salt & black pepper (set aside)
When the mince is cooked, remove from the oven, tip into (careful it's hot) your pie dish / or individual trays
Pop the broccoli on top and finally the mashed potatoes
Make a nice pattern on the potato topping with a spoon or fork (why not :-) )
When you are ready for the pie, bake in a preheated oven at 200C/400F/Gas 6 for 40-45 minutes
Check it's piping hot and serve accordingly - enjoy!
