Vegetarian Bungalow Pie

Made this dish tonight as a take on the cottage or shepherds pie...

so why bungalow pie? Because we live in a bungalow 

Ingredients

350g Quorn Mince 

1 small to medium onion finely chopped

2 small or 1 medium red capsicum (peppers) diced 

1 small yellow capsicum (pepper)diced

1 clove garlic crushed

6 portabello mushroom (sometimes called cremini mushrooms)

1/2 cup of peas frozen

1/2 cup of sweetcorn frozen

1 pint boiling water

carmalised onion gravy powder ( used bisto best)

11/2 teaspoon italian herbs 

few dashes tabasco sauce (optional)

salt and pepper to taste

olive oil

3 medium to larger potatoes roughly diced

little milk and butter to make the mash 

salt and pepper to taste

Filling a saucepan with water and salt and dicing your potatoes to make mash potatoes 

put the potatoes on to boil and then start on you bungalow mix

Dice up all your vegetables.

While dicing your veggies have your frying pan on to heat your frying pan and add your oil, then add your diced onion and garlic cook for few minutes until softened. 

add you mushroom and capsicums and continue to fry gently also until softened

add a little salt and pepper, italian herbs and tabasco if using.

Now add your peas and corn and continue cooking for five minutes or so until everything is well combined.

Now add your pint of boiling water and add your onion gravy mix and gently stir continuously until its of a lovely thick sauce. You can add as much or little gravy as you like...if you like a very thick sauce add more gravy if you like a thin sauce you can add less gravy.. I made my gravy mix pretty much to packet instructions adding one extra scoop of gravy to get the constancy I like.. 

Taste to check for seasoning and add any extra salt and pepper to your taste

by this point your potatoes should be just about ready so check those and drain and mash in your favourite way. Add any flavourings you like or just some salt and pepper to taste..

Spoon your mash potatoes onto your plate and spoon on your veggie mince topping 

This is enough to serve 3 - 4 may need to add extra potato for the mash as the mash is really only enough to serve two or thee on a stretch...

Enjoy...
