  3. Add the onions and continue to cook until translucent (approx 4 mins).
  4. Add the caremalised balsamic vinegar, worcestershire sauce, garlic, celery salt, all purpose seasoning, thyme and parsley and cook for a further 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add the red wine and continute to cook until the liquid is absorbed.
  6. Add the grated zucchini and carrot and cook for a further 2 or 3 minutes.
  7. Crumble in the stock cubes, add the boiling water then stir it in together.
  8. Add the tomato puree, bay leaf and salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Continue to simmer on a low heat, you may need to add a little more water.
  10. Meanwhile, place the pumkin, potatoes and sweet potato into a separate pan and cover with cold water.
  11. Bring to the boil and simmer until tender.
  12. Drain the potato/sweet potato/pumpkin and mash - as the pumpkin tends to retain water the best way to mash it is using a ricer so you can squeeze the water out at the start of each press.
  13. Add the butter to the potato mix and season to taste.
  14. Remove the bay leaves from the minced beef mix and spoon the mixture into a shallow 2 quart dish.
  15. Add the potato mix over the top of the beef mixture, spread evenly then rough up the top using the back of a fork.
  16. Place under a hot grill for 4 minutes.
