Richard's Cottage Pie with Cheesy/Sweet Mash

Traditional Cottage Pie made with lean beef mince, kyogle garlic, carrots and peas with a rich tomato and beef sauce flavoured with bay leaves and Italian herbs and a splash of red wine, topped with a cheesy white and sweet potato mash. This is a mixture and my Mums 'Hand Me Down' recipe with my own twist of herbs and a splash of wine to add flavour and a tasty mash topping. Delicious on its own or with salad or crusty French bread to mop up the sauce.

• Hi, I'm Richard!
  
  I have always been interested in food from the early days of sitting in the kitchen doing my homework and helping Mam cook dinner or a cake and her showing how and why things were done. I wanted to do cookery classes at school but my father wouldn't allow it as he said that was only for girls! When I was 13 my Mam had to go into hospital for a very long time and i was left to cook for my father and little brother. After several weeks of Frozen Fish Fingers, Instant Mashed Potato and Frozen Peas he reluctantly agreed that I could attend cookery classes and my love affair with food began.
