Steps on how to make your Vegan Shepherds Pie Recipe.

1. First Preheat the oven to 200 Celsius (400 Fahrenheit). Chop the cauliflower into roughly equal sized pieces, then add to a large saucepan.
2. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Season with salt and cook the  cauliflower until tender and drain.
3. Place a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the olive oil, onion, carrots and celery. Cook until slightly golden. Add the mushrooms in 6 parts, making sure each batch is cooked before adding the next.
4. Then Remove the wild mushrooms from the boiling water, reserving the water, and roughly chop. Add to the mushrooms along with the tomato paste. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the red wine. Cook until the red wine has almost evaporated before adding the mushroom soaking liquid and vegetable stock.
5. Now reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes or until roughly half of the liquid has been absorbed and remove from the heat.
6. Place the cauliflower in a food processor or high powered blender along with 2 teaspoon of olive oil, the nutritional yeast, mustard, salt and thyme leaves. Blend until smooth and taste. Adjust seasonings as required and add the nutmeg and blend for a further minute.
7. Divide the mushrooms between 4 large ramekins and top with the cauliflower mash. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden. Then your Vegan Shepherds Pie is ready to serve.

Enjoy!
