- While the onion is cooking, peel and chop the remaining veg into small cubes. Then add to the pan with a little salt and cook for 10-12 minutes until the veg starts to soften (you might want to cover loosely with a lid)
- Turn up the heat to high and add the curry power and chilli flakes, fry for 30 secs and coat the veg, then add the red wine and herbs and reduce by half.
- Once reduced, turn the heat back down to medium/low. Add the stock, lentils, tomato purée and cornflour and cook covered with a Loose lid for 20-30 minutes, until the veg softens (time will depend on how large you chop the veg)
- Meanwhile make the mash topping by peeling and chopping the potatoes into equal sizes, covering with cold water and a half teaspoon of salt and bringing to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover with a loose lid and cook until soft.
