1.	Cook the carrots and parsnips in pans of boiling water for 15-20minutes, until soft enough to mash.
2.	Drain well and roughly mash both vegetables separately, then gently fold together with the other topping ingredients, don’t over mix at this stage as it will result in just a one colour mix. Set aside until needed.
3.	Pre- heat oven to 200°c/400°f/gas mark 6.
4.	Pre-heat a large pan and spray with fry light, fry onions and garlic on a medium heat for 5 minutes to soften. Add 5ml (1tsp) water to prevent sticking.
5.	Add the Quorn mince, courgette, mushrooms, tomatoes, stock cube, red wine and 60ml of the water. Mix well and increase water if red wine is omitted.
6.	Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes, add the basil, mix the remaining water with the cornflour and stir into the pan. Cook for a further minute or two until the mixture thickens.
7.	Transfer to an ovenproof dish, top with the carrot and parsnip mixture.
8.	Bake in pre-heated oven for 25minutes. Serve with steamed green vegetables
