Method
- Put the onion, oil and diced broccoli stalks in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 5-6 mins*, stirring every 2 mins, until softened. Tip into a 1-1.2ltr pie dish or baking dish.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the florets in the microwave-safe bowl and loosely cover with baking paper or a plate; microwave for 3-4 mins until just tender. Add to the pie dish and stir in the mustard and soup; season.
- Cover the dish with the puff pastry and trim the excess, sealing the edges with a fork. Pierce the centre with a sharp knife to make a steam hole.
- Brush the pastry with milk, then bake for 30 mins. Serve with mash, if you like.
