Thanks everyone for the suggestions...I ended up using seasonings that were used in the sausage recipe posted but making a quasi Shepard's pie. I had some new potatoes that were quickly loosing their new status so I parboiled them and placed them, sliced, on top on the cooked mince mixture-that had onion, garlic, seasonings, a bit of tomato puree, and good old bisto. Baked it for about 25 minutes.
It was pretty good. I thought there would be more grease from the pork mince, but it was quite lean.
