    1 Put kumara and potatoes into a pan of lightly salted cold water. Cover and bring to the boil, then simmer for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain, return to pan, season and mash together.

    2 Meanwhile, put savoury mince into a large pan with flour. Heat gently for 5 minutes, stirring, until slightly sticky. Add stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 2-3 minutes until stock has almost evaporated. Add lentils and Worcestershire sauce, then spoon into a pie dish.

    3 Top with mashed kumara mixture, drizzle over olive oil, then grill for 5 minutes or until golden. Scatter with parsley and serve immediately.
