Method

  1. Step 1

    Place potatoes in a large saucepan and add enough cold water to cover them by 3cm. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 mins or until tender. Drain. Return the potatoes to saucepan and mash with the milk and ½ cup (40g) parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, heat a 6-cup (1.5L), 25cm (base measurement) ovenproof non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the mince and cook, stirring to break up lumps, for 3 mins or until cooked through.

  3. Step 3

    Add the pasta sauce and ½ cup (125ml) water. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 mins or until sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Step 4

    Position grill rack about 13cm below grill and preheat grill on high. Spread potato mixture over the meat filling. Sprinkle with the remaining parmesan. Grill for 4 mins or until top is golden. Stand for 5 mins before serving.
