Bhavan Pie????

Bhavan Pie recipe

Apparently a Bhavan is a humble dwelling in India. So Cottage Pie with a twist of Indian spices must be a Bhavan Pie I’m guessing?

Our basic Cottage Pie recipe is here.

The addition to the mince mix are as follows:-

Ingredients:-

Cumin seeds, dry toasted
Garam Masala
Tomato Puree
Turmeric
Grated fresh Ginger
2 cloves of Garlic, grated
Cumin
Paprika
Oil

Method:-

(1) Dry toast the Cumin seeds in a frying pan.
(2) Add the other ingredients above and bring to a simmer.
(3) Continue with the general Cottage Pie recipe here.

The mince for this creation came in the “Student Survival Pack” we won from Swain Family Butchers. As we are happily tagging them in our recipes we thought we’d try something a bit different on the Cottage Pie theme and this really worked well.
