Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 180ºC /350ºF.
  2. In a non-stick fry pan, saute diced mixed vegetables and mixed herbs in a few spoons of stock until soft. Sprinkle in plain flour and cook for one minute – make sure it’s lump free. Add can Sanitarium Country Hotpot, chickpeas, Worcestershire Sauce, tomato paste, salt and pepper, and wine.
  3. Use more stock as required to moisten mix in order to allow it to simmer. Simmer for approx 10 minutes, stirring regularly, to allow flavours to mix and develop, and reduce moisture content to preferred consistency.
  4. Place vegetable mix in an oven-proof dish and top with mashed potatoes. Use a fork to 'smooth' top of potato and make an attractive design. Sprinkle a just a little cayenne pepper on top of potato mix too if desired.
  5. Bake in oven for approx 40 minutes until top of potato mash is golden and vegetable mix is bubbling. It’s a good idea to place oven-proof dish on an oven tray so drips don’t fall into oven.
  6. Serve with green vegetables.
  • Mashed potatoes − can make mash with a mix of potato and sweet potato or parsnip. When making mashed potatoes mixture, use soy milk and a little olive oil.
  • Mixed herbs − as an alternative to bay leaf, use rosemary, thyme, parsley (fresh is best but dried will do – reduce amount to about one tablespoon for dried).
  • Mixed vegetables − e.g. celery or fennel, parsnip, carrot, onion.
  • A 'glug' of wine - white or red, is optional.
