* A few tablespoons of olive oil for frying the onions and Garlic
* 1 medium Onion, chopped
* 2 cloves of Garlic, crushed (or to taste)
* 450g Minced Lamb or Mutton
* ½ teaspoon dried mixed herbs
* 1 450g can baked beans
* 1 450g can plum tomatoes, chopped
* 2 tablespoons of gravy granules or a crumbled beef stock cube
* A dash of Worcestershire sauce
* '''Topping'''
* 4 medium / large potatoes, peeled and quartered
* 1 tablespoon of butter
* A dash of milk or cream
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper
* 4 tablespoons of strong Cheddar cheese, grated

===Method===
I know Delia Smith would have us use frozen mash potatoes for a Cheat's Recipe, but I really can't bring myself to buy frozen mash, so...
* Boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes, mash with the butter, seasoning and a dash of milk or cream.
* Meanwhile, fry the onions and Garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
* Add the mince and fry for a 3 or 4 minutes.
* Add the onions and mince to a large oven proof casserole dish. You can of course do the frying in that too if it is suitable.
* Add the chopped tomatoes, baked beans, mixed herbs and stir well. Sprinkle the gravy granules or stock cube over the mixture, add a dash of Worcestershire sauce and give it one final mix.
* Carefully layer the mashed potato on the top and using a fork, create plenty of peaks so they brown and crisp during the baking.
* Top with grated cheese and bake for 20 minutes until the top is golden-brown.
