Cottage pie with crispy grated potato topping.

Hi everyone,

Here's what I made for dinner tonight it's a cottage pie with onions mushrooms red lentils and frozen mixed veg in a gravy thickened with a little gram flour and seasoned with bouilon and salt free yeast extract with mashed potato on top and a little grated potato on top of that to give a crispy topping. I usualy cook potatoes in their skin and I really like cooking with grated potato as it is nice and crispy. Sometimes I make potato cakes with grated potato and they cook quickly and the outside is lovely and crispy.

Enjoy your evening and stay safe and well which's the lockdown mantra...

Hey thanks Leah, I did enjoy it and I expect that you have latkes sometimes as they're made with grated potato. 😊

That’s right! Latkes are crispy and made with shredded potatoes.😀👍🌈

That looks and sound delicious Jerry and you've given me an idea now to grate potatoes. You really do cook up a storm and have fantastic ideas.

All I can say to that is yummy.😋

I just finished eating my dinner - Cottage Pie 😂 Not as fancy as yours. I served mine with caramelised onion (daughter won’t eat onions so I can’t put them in the pie), carrots, broccoli and corn.
