Brown the meat, tipping off any excess fat. Add the courgette and tomato purée, then fry for a few mins more. Pour in the stock, add the lentils and bring to a simmer. Cook for 40 mins, stirring from time to time.
• Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Boil the potatoes for 10-15 mins until tender. Drain, then mash with the butter and milk.
• Remove the lamb mixture from the heat and use a stick blender to purée. Stir as you purée, blending down the pieces of vegetables. Spoon into 8 largish individual ramekins. Top with the mash and grated cheese. The pie can now be chilled and frozen for up to a month.

Steps:

• 1. Pie Crust. Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees (F). Prepare a pie crust for a 9 inch deep dish pie pan (I use acrylic). Flute the edges and prick the bottom with a fork. Press aluminum foil against the inside of the pie dough and weight it to stabilize the crust. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove the aluminum and the weights. Reduce the oven to 375 degrees and return the pie crust and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Crust should be nicely brown.
• 2. Custard mixture. Mix together the sugar, cornstarch and salt. Add, the milk and the egg yolks. Put the mixture in a medium saucepan an cook on medium to medium high, whisking the mixture constantly until large boil bubbles form. (Note: unless the custard begins to boil. the corn starch will not sufficiently thicken the mixture). Reduce heat until the custard thickens. Remove from heat and add the cut up butter and the vanilla and whisk well. Add one half of the custanrd to the prepared pie shell. Cut up the bananas and completey cover the custard. Add the remaining custard to cover the banana layer.
• 3. The Meringue. With a hand mixer, mix the egg whites and the cream of tarter until frothy. Gradually add the sugar and the vanilla and beat at high speed until stiff. Spread evenly over the top of the pie. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes until the meringue is nicely brown. Allow the pie to cool.
