Step by Step Method

Step 1

Heat oil in a large, deep frying pan or saucepan over medium heat and add the leek, carrot, celery, mushroom, zucchini and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally for 6 to 7 minutes or until the vegetable start to soften.

Step 3

Remove the lid and continue to cook for a further 10 minutes or until the mixture reduces and thickens.

Step 4

Meanwhile, to make the topping, cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water for 12 to 15 minutes or until tender and then drain well and return to the pan.

Step 5

Add the margarine and mash until almost smooth and then add the buttermilk and beat until smooth.

Step 6

Combine the cheese, breadcrumbs, lemon zest and rosemary in a small bowl.

Step 7

Preheat oven to 190C, fan forced.

Step 8

Place a 2.5 litre (10 cup) ovenproof dish on a baking tray and spoon the vegetable mixture into the dish and then spoon the mashed potato over and spread out to cover the surface and then using a fork to rough up the surface and then sprinkle over the breadcrumb mixture and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are a golden brown colour.
