Cooking For A Rugby Fan

A busy Saturday for husband. Three rugby matches to be watched.

I have to fit a meal in somewhere, but it'll have to be quick. It's a miserable day and I don't feel like shopping. So a shepherd's pie? Can I manage with what I have in the house? I'll try. Here are my ingredients:

500 grams minced lamb; 1 onion 1 red pepper; 2 sticks celery
4 mushrooms; 2 tomatoes; tomato puree; coriander
Salt, pepper and pinch of cayenne; cinnamon; 500 ml chicken stock
2 sweet potatoes; breadcrumbs; butter

Cook in same way as normal shepherd's pie, and see what you think.

Dessert? Yes. Plums stewed with cardamom, served with Greek yoghourt, to follow.

Then back to the rugby!
