Preparation steps

Rinse and peel onion and carrots. Finely chop onion. Cut and finely dice carrots. Rinse and finely dice celery and leek. Heat oil in a large saucepan. Cook onion until translucent. Add ground lamb and fry, breaking up and stirring meat until browned and crumbly in texture. Add carrots, celery and leek and fry for 2-3 minutes.

Stir in tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce. Season with pepper. Add lentils and broth and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in half of the parsley.

Meanwhile, peel and coarsely grate potatoes and parsnips. Add to boiling water and cook 5-10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl. Let cool briefly. Stir in a little cream and butter. Season with salt and pepper.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (approximately 400°F). Transfer ground lamb mixture to a heat-safe baking dish. Top with potato mixture. Bake until golden brown, 20-30 minutes. Serve hot, sprinkled with parsley.
