LITTLE SPICY VEGGIE PIES

Steps:

• To make the topping, boil the potatoes for 15-20 mins until tender then drain, reserving the water, and mash with the ground and fresh coriander and yogurt until creamy.
• While the potatoes are boiling, heat the oil in a large pan, add the ginger and fry briefly, tip in the curry powder and garlic, stirring quickly as you don't want it to burn, then tip in a can of chickpeas with the water from the can. Stir well, then mash in the pan to smash them up a bit, then tip in the second can of chickpeas, again with the water from the can, along with the carrots, corn, bouillon and tomato purée. Simmer for 5-10 mins, adding some of the potato water, if needed, to loosen.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Spoon the filling into four individual pie dishes (each about 10cm wide, 8cm deep) and top with the mash, smoothing it to seal round the edges of the dishes. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, bake two for 25 mins until golden, and cook half the spinach, saving the rest of the bag for another day. Cover and chill the remaining two pies to eat another day. Will keep in the fridge for four days - if following the Healthy Diet Plan pop the extra two pies in the freezer for the end of the week. If freezing, to reheat, bake from frozen for 40-45 mins until golden and piping hot.

Carefully lift out the foil and set the crust aside.
• To make the beans, place all of the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Set aside. To make the vegetables, season the zucchini with salt and pepper. In a bowl, toss together the roasted peppers and grilled corn. Season with salt and pepper.
• To assemble, spread half of the bean puree over the crust. Top with half of the zucchini, pressing it into the bean puree. Top with half of the pepper mixture. Spread the remaining bean puree over the pepper mixture. Top with the remaining pepper mixture and then the zucchini, pressing each layer down. Sprinkle the top with the reserved crumb mixture. Bake for 45 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
