4 - 5 Servings
~ 30 - 35 minutes
- 1.5 kg potates
- 3 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp cooking oil
- 500g steak mince
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 punnet oyster mushroom, julienned
- 1 green pepper, julienned
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tbsp tomato puree
- 1 tbsp margarine
- Get your ingredients together. Put the potatoes into a pot. Add enough water to just cover the potatoes and 1 1/2 tsp salt. Bring to the boil until tender, cooked through and the water is finished.
- Using a potato masher, begin to mash the potatoes in a circular motion. Add the margarine half way through the mashing. Continue mashing until your potatoes are smooth and silky. Set aside.
- As the potatoes are cooking, heat 2 tbsp oil in a pot. Add the mince, garlic, tomato puree and 1 tsp salt. Fry until the mince is cooked and has a lovely tomato-reddish colour.
- Add the onion and fry until the onions are translucent (semi-transparent). Add the tomatoes, stir and close the pot for about 5 minutes or until the tomatoes are well cooked.
- Add 50 ml water, simmer gently for another 5 minutes and set aside.
- Heat oil in pan. Add the carrots and fry for about 2 minutes, stirring regularly. Add the mushroom and allow to cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Finally add green pepper and 1 tsp salt. Allow to cook for a further 2 minutes. Your meal is ready!
