Phil Vickery serves up cottage pie with a twist with a seasonal swede and sweet potato mash topping for the weekend on This Morning.<\/p>\n

The ingredients are: 500g minced lamb, 2 small onions, very finely chopped, 1 large carrot, roughly chopped not too large, 2 tsp dried thyme, 600mls lamb or beef stock, 100g red lentils, 4 tbsp flour, 2 heaped tbsp soft butter, 300g potatoes, peeled and chopped, 400g sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped, 50g butter, salt and black pepper.<\/p>\n

To prepare the pie, place the lamb, onions, carrot, thyme, stock and lentil into a saucepan.<\/p>\n

Bring to the boil and simmer for 35-40 minutes or until the lentils and carrots are cooked.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, mix the soft butter and flour together well.<\/p>\n

Boil the two potatoes together until very soft, then mash adding the butter salt and pepper. Once the mince is cooked, turn down to a simmer and mix the soft flour and butter together.<\/p>\n

Beat in enough of the butter\/flour mix until the mince thickens, then bring to the boil. The mix needs to be fairly thick.<\/p>\n

Pour into a casserole dish and cool. Once cooled, pile on the mash evenly.<\/p>\n

Pre heat an oven to 200C gas 6 and bake for 25 minutes to brown nicely and warm through.<\/p>\n
