This mince bake with sweet potato is comforting comfort food from the oven. Beneath a golden layer of creamy sweet potato mash hides spicy mince with carrot, peas and tomato. With a bit of cheese on top, the bake comes to the table bubbling and fragrant, a real family favourite that's ready without any fuss.

From Phase 3 onwards, carbohydrates can return in moderation, and this protein-rich dish uses that space cleverly. The lean beef mince provides a generous serving of protein that keeps you satisfied for longer, whilst the sweet potato adds a responsible amount of slow-release carbohydrates and natural sweetness. Together with the vegetables you get a balanced plate that fits perfectly within your protein diet in this phase.

Lovely with a handful of steamed broccoli or green beans, or a fresh green salad on the side. A dash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of thyme through the mince gives that little bit of extra flavour.

Zo maak je het

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and cook the sweet potato until tender.
  2. Fry the onion, carrot and mince until crumbly and add the tomato puree and tinned tomatoes.
  3. Stir in the peas and simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Blend the sweet potato with milk, salt and pepper.
  5. Spoon the meat mixture into a baking dish and cover with the puree and cheese.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes until the top is golden brown.

Bewaren

Store the dish covered in the fridge and eat within three days. Reheating works best in the oven, so the puree layer becomes lightly crispy again.

Variatietips

Swap the peas for sweetcorn or broad beans, or mix grated courgette through the mince. For a richer puree, combine part of the sweet potato with parsnip.
