Vegan Shepherdless Pie Notes

The liquid at the bottom of the pie dish in the images is due to the mushrooms not being precooked before being added to the beans. The pie is great as is, however, if you would prefer, cook them off for 5 minutes with no oil or butter on medium heat to release some of their liquid and then add to the black beans.

How to make Vegan Shepherdless Pie:

Place the onions in a saucepan with a little olive oil on low heat for approximately 3 minutes, stirring until lightly cooked.

Add in the garlic, leek and scallions and stir until lightly cooked, approximately 3 minutes.

Add in the cubed carrots and stir, cooking for a further 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Meanwhile, place the sweet potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover and heat on high.

Cook until soft when pierced. Drain ¾ of water and add the other half tablespoon vegetable broth. Continue cooking on low for approximately 3 minutes.

Place the black beans in a saucepan with half a cup of water and add ½ the vegetable broth on low heat to simmer and reduce for 5 minutes.

Add in the tomatoes, stirring to combine and cook on a simmer for a further 10 minutes.

Add the onion, garlic, leek, scallions and carrot to the black beans. Continue cooking for 10 minutes to blend the flavors together, stirring every few minutes.

Heat the oven to 150°C/300F on grill.

Add the mushrooms to the black beans and stir to combine. Seasoning to taste.

Pour the milk, olive oil and curry powder and mash until smooth.

Place the black beans vegetable mix in a heatproof baking dish and spoon the mashed sweet potatoes on top. Running a fork over the top.

Grill in the oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Serve immediately with a salad or on it’s own.
