Ingredients
4 | Kumara, scrubbed (Main) |
1 Tbsp | Butter |
½ cup | Grated cheese |
4 rashers | Streaky bacon, chopped |
1 | Small onion, diced |
1 | Carrot, peeled and diced finely |
1 | Celery stalk, diced finely |
250 g | Pork mince (Main) |
1 cup | Lentils, canned (Main) |
250 ml | Campbell's vegetable stock (Main) |
1 | Garlic clove, crushed |
2 Tbsp | Chopped sage |
¼ | Apple sauce, or puree |
Directions
- Heat oven to 180C. Rub the kumara with a little oil and bake for 40 minutes until soft. Allow to cool a little. Cut the kumara in half lengthwise, scoop out most of the kumara into a bowl and mash with butter and cheese, season and set aside. Place the kumara skins in to a baking dish.
- Fry the bacon in a large frying pan. Add the onion, carrot and celery and cook over a medium heat until soft. Turn up the heat, add the mince and stir-fry until brown.
- Add the lentils, stock, garlic, sage and apple sauce and simmer for 20-30 minutes until stock has reduced and lentils are nice and soft, adding more stock if necessary.
- Spoon the mince mixture in to the kumara skins. Top with the mashed kumara and bake for 20 minutes until brown on top.
