Here’s a recipe that’s easy and worth trying. It ends up into something new and healthy, a potato pie that’s perfectly made not only for dessert but also for dinner’s main course. With its heavy pie filling, this pie could be served rightly as a main dish. Its filling consists of ground lamb meat, grated carrots and tomato paste and the top layer is filled with creamy mashed potatoes and the ultimate-favorite cheddar cheese. Nutritious, that’s also one of the best things about this dish; it’s extremely rich in vitamin A because of the carrots and tomato paste. Lean lamb meat and cheese also make it a high protein dish. Truly, this potato pie is rewarding; you’ll love the ease and its healthy treat. Now, here’s how to make it.
