Instructions

1. Spray a large pan with the Cooking Oil Spray and heat it up. Add the onions, carrots and celery and stir constantly over medium heat (about 5 minutes) until the vegetables soften. Set the vegetables aside.
2. Spray the pan again lightly with oil and fry the mince until it is brown. Add flour and stir for 2-3 minutes. Then add the vegetables, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, stock cube and 500 ml water. Mix everything together and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally so that it does not stick.
3. Now peel the potatoes, cut them into small pieces and cook until they are soft. Pour off the water. Add milk, salt and pepper and mash until it is mashed potatoes.
4. Add the parsley to the mince mixture and place in a 1.5 liter baking dish. Spread the mashed potatoes on top and use a fork to draw a pattern into the mash. Then just sprinkle some paprika over it and bake in the oven at full heat until the potato layer turns brown.
5. It could be difficult to get Cooking Oil Spray in Germany, so just use normal oil. It is then no longer low fat, but it still tastes good.
