Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas 6.

2. First prepare the potatoes for the filling. Boil the potatoes in a large pan of simmering, salted water. When they are just cooked, remove from the heat and cool in cold water. Drain, dice and leave to one side.

3. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a frying pan. Add in the onions and thyme and fry for 3 minutes.

4. Add in the marmite, stock and red wine and cook briskly until reduced by half.

5. Add the corned beef and parsley and season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

6. Cook for 5-10 minutes, breaking it up with a fork.

7. Season the diced potatoes and mash them thoroughly with milk and the butter.

8. Place the corned beef mixture into an ovenproof dish and top with the mashed potatoes.

9. Mix together the grated Cheddar and breadcrumbs.

10. Sprinkle the mixture over the mashed potatoes and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.

11. Serve hot from the oven with a dressed green salad.

Have had this for the last 2 nights & could eat it again tomorrow it was so good. I used red cotes de rhone wine, half price from asda & we had it with veg instead of salad the 1st night & with crusty bread & butter the second. *****

The amount of potatoes definately needs to be changed - is it meant to be 750g? Otherwise really easy recipe to follow.

The 250g must be a mistake - can't it be fixed? That's just one good-sized potato.

Nowhere near enough mashed potato.I'd say 500g's at least. 250g's doesn't even attempt to cover it.Otherwise tastes good
