  Delicious - although I steamed the carrots and swede together beforehand to make sure they were thoroughly cooked. Combined ingredients together with a little flour and the stock. Really tasty easy meal, and will certainly have it again.

  I used vegetable stock instead of chicken stock,and after dividing between 4 individual pie dishes there were some stock left in the pan,so I had them as soup.It was so delicious.

  I used Ramekin dishes for the individual portions and thought that they would be too small - but all the mixture fit between 4 dishes and the potatoe was piled on top. Was a tasty, homely dish and I was suprised how filling one serving was. Def will make again.

  This was delicious! I halved the recipe and it was lovely. I don't like mashed potato so I boiled chunks of potato and topped it with a bit of cheddar. Lovely!!

  I used leek instead of onion and smoked bacon and it came out really well. I would recommend pre cooking the swede. Works fine as one 1 big pie (I don't have any individual ones).

  This makes a nice change from shepherds pie - it's a real comfort dish. I think 30 mins is a bit of an underestimate for timings, so make sure you've got a bit longer.

  I don't like swede, so was looking for a recipe that would change my opinion of it - this is it! I boiled the swede and carrots on the hob for a bit longer, until the veg was tender. A very hearty and warming dinner, great for a cold winter's night! There were only 3 of us, so loads left over - stuck it in the blender and made awesome soup!!

  When my lass smelt the pan (before I added the Parsley) she turned her nose up, but 15 minutes and a clean bowl later she was asking if there was more. We both really, really enjoyed this, and I will absolutely be making this again. Perfect winter dish for my tastebuds :)
