Step 1

Instruction

Preheat your oven to 200°C . Put a large saucepan of water with a pinch of salt on to boil for the potato. Meanwhile, chop the potato into 2cm chunks (peel first if you prefer a smooth mash). Remove the top and bottom from the carrot (no need to peel!) and grate on a coarse grater.

Step 2

Instruction

Add the potato to the boiling water and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 10-15 mins. Drain in a colander then return to the pan, off the heat. Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat. When hot, add the lamb mince, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and fry, stirring, until brown, 4-5 mins.

Step 3

Instruction

Stir the carrot into the lamb, then add the dried oregano. Pour in the finely chopped tomatoes, stock pot and water (see ingredients for amount) and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the stock pot. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until thick and tomatoey, 8-10 mins.

Step 5

Instruction

When the potato is cooked, add three-quarters of the crumbled feta and mash together with a knob of butter (if you have any) and a good grind of pepper. Pour the lamb mixture into an ovenproof dish. Spread the feta mash out on top, using the back of a spoon to ensure it covers the lamb evenly. Scatter over the remaining feta. Bake until golden, 12-15 mins.

Step 6

Instruction

While the pie bakes, quickly rinse out the frying pan and return to medium heat. Add the green beans and a splash of water, then pop a lid (or some foil) on the pan and leave to steam-fry until the beans are just tender, 6-8 mins. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the feta shepherd's pie with the beans alongside and finish with a scattering of parsley. Kali Orexi!
