Nutrition per serve

Ingredients

• 2pcs potato
• 1pcs onion
• 1pcs carrot
• 1pcs chorizo sausage
• 300g lean pork mince
• 10g smoky barbecue seasoning
• 400g diced tomatoes
• 30ml milk
• 15g butter
• 10ml olive oil
• 30ml barbecue sauce
• 5ml sugar

Method

1. Step 1 — Make mashed potato
   Preheat the oven to 220C, fan-forced. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2cm chunks. Put in a medium saucepan of cold salted water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10-12 mins until tender. Drain, then return to the pan and mash until smooth. Add 2 tbs milk and 15g butter and stir until combined. Season with salt.
2. Step 2 — Cook chorizo and mince
   Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and carrot. Quarter the chorizo lengthwise and thinly slice. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a medium deep frypan over medium heat. Cook the onion and carrot, stirring, for 4-5 mins until softened. Increase the heat to high, add the chorizo and pork mince and cook, breaking up the lumps with a spoon, for 3-4 mins until browned.
3. Step 3 — Simmer pork mixture
   Add three-quarters of the barbecue seasoning to the pork mixture and cook, stirring, for 30 secs or until fragrant. Stir in the tomatoes, 2 tbs barbecue sauce, 1 tsp sugar and 60ml (¼ cup) water and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 mins or until slightly thickened. Remove the pan from the heat.
4. Step 4 — Bake cottage pie
   Taste the pork mixture, then season lightly with salt and pepper. Transfer to a 1.5L (6 cup) baking dish. Spoon over the mashed potato, then scatter over the remaining barbecue seasoning (see Make it cheesy). Bake the cottage pie for 8 mins or until the potato topping is golden.
5. Step 5 — Serve up
   Divide the cottage pie among plates or pop the dish on the table for everyone to help themselves. Enjoy!
6. Step 6 — Make it cheesy
   If you have some on hand, scatter grated cheddar or parmesan over the cottage pie before baking for a cheesy twist.
