method
The ingredients of this are very similar to the sausage & pepper casserole except here we use a tin of tomato soup instead of beans and tomatoes. We also keep the peppers a little crispier because we'll finish the dish in the oven to give the mash a wonderful golden crispy toasted finish.
let's cook!
- Pre-heat large pan / wok
- Add sausage to the pan & brown all over
- Add onions, fry for 5mins
-
Add:
- salt
- pepper
- mixed herbs
- oregano
- Crumble in veg stock cube
- Add peppers, cook for 5 mins, leave them crunchy
-
Add:
- tomato puree
- Worcestershire sauce
- tomato soup
- Cover & simmer for about 10mins
- Transfer to a deep casserole dish and cover with mashed potato
Add 1tsp ground white pepper to your mash for a grown up
variation.
Make a pretty pattern on top of the mash using a fork — all the little bits that stick up will toast golden brown adding a little texture and smiles from your guests!
Alternatively, you can brown the mash under a med-hot grill for about 15mins while the ingredients are still hot
If browning from fridge-cold, bake in a pre-heated oven 180c for 45 mins
