1 onion
1 carrot
250ml of water
? a teaspoon of salt
? a tablespoon of butter
? a tablespoon of milk
Ground pepper to taste
? a tablespoon of sunflower oil
250g of minced meat (Use minced beef for a cottage pie, minced lamb for a shepherd’s pie!.)
125ml of water
1 stock cube (Use a beef stock cube for a cottage pie, a lamb stock cube for a shepherd’s pie!.)
METHOD
Peel the potatoes and chop into quarters!. Peel the onion and chop it into tiny pieces!. Cut both ends off the carrot, peel it and then grate it!.
Put the 250ml of water and salt into a saucepan on a medium heat!. Add the potatoes!. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat until it is just boiling (simmering)!. Put the lid on the saucepan and cook for 20 to 25 minutes until soft!. Check the water level from time to time and top up if it starts to dry out!.
While the potatoes are cooking, put the oil in a frying pan on a medium heat!. Fry the onion for a couple of minutes!. Stir frequently to stop it sticking!. Add the meat and cook for another 5 minutes!. Add the carrot!. Crumble the stock cube into the 125ml of water and pour it into the frying pan!. Cook for another 5 minutes until most of the water has boiled off!.

Put the meat mixture into an ovenproof dish!. Level off the surface!. Put the mashed potato on top!. Spread to cover the meat mixture!. Make artistic swirls in the mashed potato!. This increases the surface area and makes the top crisper!.
Cook in a preheated oven at 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4 for 20 to 30 minutes until golden on top!.
ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES
Use minced pork, but then it ought to be called a swineherd’s pie!. Use minced turkey, but then it ought to be called a poultryman’s pie!.
If you haven’t got a grater, you can chop the carrot into tiny pieces!. However, grated carrot was the traditional farmer's wife's method of making the minced meat go further without anyone realising!.
The vegetarian version is made by substituting the meat for 75g (? a 150g packet) of soya mince or Protoveg Burgamix, made up according to the instructions on the packet!. You can even use 250g of broken up vegetarian hamburgers!. Substitute the stock cube for a vegetable one!.
Add 100g of chopped mushrooms to the meat!. Sprinkle 50g of grated Cheddar cheese on top of the potato, or even into it as it being mashed!.
*New potatoes make rubbish mashed potato!. Use old ones like King Edward’s or Desiree RedWww@FoodAQ@Com
