Whether you’re a lover or a hater, this Sausage and Marmite Pie is guaranteed to impress! The Marmite works like a stock to give this dish a delicious, meaty flavour, so don’t be put off if you’re not a lover – it would also work really well with things like Vegemite or Bovril if you’d prefer.
Our Sausage and Marmite Pie is the perfect comfort food for those chilly evenings and is even tastier with a little reduced fat mature cheddar mixed into the mash or sprinkled over the top – 80g of finely grated, reduced fat cheddar will increase each portion to 422 calories!

This Sausage and Marmite Pie is perfect if you’re following a calorie controlled diet and fits well with any one of the major diet plans such as Weight Watchers.
As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day. Obviously, if your goal is to lose weight then you might want to adjust these slightly! You can read more about these recommendations on the NHS website.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220°c.
Step 2
Add the onion and red pepper to a saucepan and spray with low calorie cooking spray. Cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes until softened.
Step 3
Add the raw sliced sausage to the pan and cook for around 4 minutes until browned.
Step 4
Stir the mushrooms into the pan and cook for 1 minute while stirring so they colour slightly.
Step 5
Add the chopped tomatoes, butterbeans, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic, stock pot, garlic, paprika, and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste. Gently simmer stirring occasionally for 10 minutes while you cook the potatoes. When the mix is done it will be rich and thick.
Step 6
Bring a separate large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Step 7
When the potatoes are done, drain the water and add the egg and marmite to the pan. Mash the potatoes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste – though you may not need much salt as the marmite is already quite salty!
Step 8
Add the sausage mix to a roasting or pie dish. Spoon the mash onto the top and drag a fork through it to rough up the surface.
Step 9
Place into the oven for 15 minutes, until the top has turned golden. Serve hot with an accompaniment of your choice.

Can I leave out the egg from the mash and use butter and milk as well as the marmite?
Thank you.
SharonMonday 1st June 2020
Hi Pamela, yes, you could use milk and butter if you prefer rather than the egg, but it will alter the calories in the dish. Thanks for getting in touch.
Nicki SmithThursday 16th April 2020
Hi. I don’t have any butter beans, is it okay to use chickpeas instead because that’s all there is in my cupboard!
Holly LevellMonday 18th May 2020
Hi Nikki, any beans would be a great substitute for the butter beans. You could try baked beans or kidney beans. Hope that helps!
