Savoury Mince & Potato Wedges - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 teaspoon mild paprika
    1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
    800 g desiree potatoes, cut into wedges
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 large brown onion, finely chopped
    500 g beef mince
    400 g diced tomatoes
    2 tablespoons tomato paste
    2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    1 1/2 cups beef stock
    100 g button mushrooms, thinly sliced
    1 medium carrot, grated
    1 green capsicum, finely chopped
    2 tablespoons gravy, powder
    flat leaf parsley, finely chopped to serve
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 220C/200C fan-forced.
    Place paprika, tumeric, potato and half the oil in a baking dish.
    toss to coat.
    Bake 35-40 minutes, turning occasionally, or until golden and tender.
    Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
    Add onion and mince.
    Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up mince for 6-8 minutes or until browned.
    Add tomatoes, tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, stock, mushrooms, carrot and capsicum.
    Bring to the boil then reduce heat to medium-low.
    Simmer for 25-30 minutes or until thickened.
    Stir in gravy powder.
    Divide wedges and mince mixture between bowls.
    Serve topped with parsley.
    Notes:
    Use 2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables instead of mushrooms, carrot and green capsicum.
    To freeze, allow mince to cool then spoon into a large snap-lock bag. Seal. Flatten bag for quicker defrosting. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in refridgerator overnight. Transfer savoury mince to a large saucepan. Reheat, stirring over medium-high heat, adding extra stock if necessary. Cook wedges as directed.
