Serves: 4 adults
Preparation time: 15 mins
Cooking time: 1 hr 0 mins
Ingredients:
4 baking potatoes scrubbed clean
250g extra lean minced beef
1 small onion finely chopped
1 garlic clove crushed
1 handful mushrooms (cup or button) finely chopped
100ml reduced salt vegetable or chicken stock
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 handful lettuce leaves shredded
1 medium red onion sliced
1 handful cherry tomatoes
What to do:
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6.
2. Prick potatoes with a fork before baking for 1 hour, or until tender.
3. Meanwhile, heat a large saucepan and add the mince, a handful at a time, cooking it until browned.
4. Add the onion and garlic, cook for 1 minute, then add the mushrooms, stock and tomato puree. Stir well
until hot, then simmer, part-covered, for 20-25 minutes.

or lettuce, sliced red onion and cherry tomatoes on the side.
