SHEPHERD’S PIE

THIS nursery staple of lamb mince, mashed potato and vegetables sounds like a balanced meal. But today’s portion provides a whopping 200 more calories than the versions around in the Nineties. With 1.7g of salt, it has more than a quarter of an adult woman’s recommended daily salt intake.
