Ingredients
2 teaspoons olive oil

200g lean beef mince

2 tablespoons salt-reduced tomato paste

Method
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook onion for 3 minutes or until softened. Add mince. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until mince is browned.
- Add carrot, zucchini and celery. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes.
- Add tomato paste, tomatoes, kidney beans, rosemary and stock. Stir to combine. Reduce heat, cover and simmer mince mixture for 15 minutes or until vegetables are soft.
- Whilst the mince mixture simmers down, cook potato/sweet potato in a microwave safe dish (with an inch of water in the bottom) for 8 to 10 minutes or until soft. Add in the milk and margarine, and mash until smooth.
- Spoon mince mixture into a casserole dish. Add the mashed potato mixture on top. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes to set.
