Instructions :
Place the mince and vegetables in a pan and fry until meat is brown and the vegetables are soft. Sprinkle on the flour, mix well and cook for a few more minutes.
Add the beef stock, worcestershire sauce , salt and pepper and mix well then simmer for about 10 minutes until thickened and slightly reduced. Place in casserole dish.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender then drain and return to the pan. Add the quark and egg yolk and mash very well until smooth.
Spread the mashed potato over the top of the meat and vegetables then score lightly with a fork
There is no reason to do this but my Mum always did it so I always do it : )
Spray lightly with oil and bake in a medium/hot oven Gas6/200/400 for about 30 minutes until browned and serve with lots of vegetables I used tenderstem broccoli today.
