Cooking Instructions:

1. TO PREPARE THE BEEF AND VEGETABLES:
Trim both ends off the green beans then cut in half. Peel, trim both ends then grate the carrot and the parsnip. Heat a non-stick frying pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the beef mince and cook for 3-4 mins, using a spoon to break the mince into small pieces. Add the grated vegetables, season with salt and pepper and cook for a further 2-3 mins. Stir through the farmhouse tomato sauce, 2 tbsp of water and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 2 mins then remove from the heat.
2. TO PREPARE THE PIE:
Using a deep-sided oven proof dish add the mince beef, spreading it evenly across the bottom of the dish then sprinkle with tasty cheese. Melt 1 Tbsp of garlic butter using the microwave or a small pot. Lightly crunch each of the filo pastry sheets and place on top of the pie mix then drizzle with the melted butter. Bake in the oven for 15 mins until golden and cooked through. Allow to sit for a few mins before serving.
3. TO PREPARE THE GREEN VEGETABLES:
Wipe out the pan and place back over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot add the green beans and cook for 3-4 mins. Add the sliced leeks, remaining garlic butter, season with salt and pepper and cook for a further 2-3 mins until warmed through.
TO SERVE:
Divide the farmhouse pie between plates and serve with buttered greens on the side.
