In a large saute pan, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions, carrots and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes.

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the red wine and the veal reduction. Add the bay leaves and thyme. Bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, during the last 30 minutes add the mushrooms. Remove from the heat and cool.

Pour the mixture into a deep 9-inch oval dish. Place spoonfuls of the sweet potatoes over the meat mixture. Dot the top of the sweet potatoes with the butter. Place in a preheated 350 degree oven and cook for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are golden. (Place a baking sheet under the dish in case the pie starts to bubble over.) Remove from the oven spoon into serving plates and garnish with parsley.
