This is an adaptation of Shashi's Potato Pie.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup dried lentils (I used the little French green ones, but brown would be fine) - 3 pts
1 x onion finely chopped
1 x carrot finely sliced
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 x tbspn ground cumin
2 x tbspn tomato paste
Chilli to taste (I used 1 x tsp)
1.5 x cups stock (I used Campbells Vegetable stock in the tetrapacks)
salt

Method:
Heat a heavy bottomed pot. Spray with oil and add onion. Gently cook 2 mins. Add cumin and carrot and a little stock to stop sticking. Cook 2-3 mins. Add lentils, stock and tomato paste. Cover and cook 35 mins, stirring occasionally. You may need to add water to stop sticking. Add peas and corn and cook a further 5 mins uncovered. Add salt to taste.

You want to end up with a nice thick lentil mixture so if it is too runny cook without a lid until reduced to the right consistency.

This lentil mixture improves with age so is best made the day before.

Note: You can bulk this recipe up with any number of different vegetables. Just use anything in your fridge or garden.

Topping:
450gms cooked Agria potatoes, mashed with Dijon mustard and a little milk or stock. (3pts)
Sprinkle 30gms WW Tasty grated cheese on top (1.5 pts) and a little paprika or dried herbs.
Bake in a moderate oven until golden.

Total 7.5 points for the whole pie. (Serves 2-4).

Sorry everyone I made a mistake with the points in this recipe. Both Tomato paste and frozen corn have points so if you're following the recipe to the letter you will need to adjust the points. It is hoewever, easy enough to replace the tomato paste with some tomato puree and the frozen corn with a point-free vegetable.
