Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, and red pepper, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Add the smoked paprika, oregano, and cumin, and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste, vegetable stock, lentils, Worcestershire sauce, peas, and corn, and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the vegan butter and milk, and mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer the lentil mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread the mashed potatoes over the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
