Ingredients

  • 320 g turkey mince
  • 720 g potatoes
  • 100 g onion
  • 120 g red pepper
  • 120 g carrot
  • 100 g green peas
  • 150 g crushed tomatoes
  • 100 ml skimmed milk
  • 2 1/4 tsp olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Method, step by step

  1. Peel and chop the potatoes and boil them in salted water for 15 minutes, until tender; drain, mash them with the warm milk and a pinch of salt until creamy, and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, chop the onion, pepper, and carrot and sauté them in a frying pan with the oil for 5-6 minutes; add the turkey mince and brown it, breaking it up with a spoon.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and peas, season with salt and pepper, and simmer 6-8 minutes over medium heat, until reduced and juicy but with no loose liquid.
  4. Spread the turkey in a baking dish, cover with the mashed potatoes, smoothing the top with a fork, and grill 8-10 minutes at 220°C, until the potato layer is golden. Serve hot.
