Cooking Instructions
Make your mash
- Cut the potatoes into 2cm cubes, then cook in boiling water for 15-18 mins. Drain, return to the pan and mash with a splash of water, then lightly season.
Prep the veg
- Meanwhile, peel and thinly slice the onions. Dice the carrots into 1cm cubes, and thinly slice the mushrooms.
Time to fry!
- Spritz a large non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and put it over a high heat. Fry the onions, carrots and mushrooms for 5-7 mins.
- Add the mince and cook for 4-5 mins, leaving it in chunky pieces, until browned all over.
Stir up your stew
- Add the tomato purée, garlic & herb paste and Hendersonʼs Relish to the pan. Crumble in the stock cube, pour in 250ml boiled water (350ml for 4 portions) and stir well. Simmer for 4-5 mins (5-6 mins for 4 portions), until the sauce has reduced and the beef is cooked through.
- Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little, then lightly season and stir in the yogurt.
Bring everything together
- Finely chop the chives, then stir half into the mash along with the horseradish.
- Dish up the stew and horseradish mash, then sprinkle over the remaining chives to serve.
