An easily made dish, rather like a cottage pie, which uses left-over cooked turkey. Useful after Christmas. Serves 4.
Ingredients
1 lb. cooked turkey, diced
1 small onion, peeled and chopped
2 oz butter
4 oz sweetcorn kernels, (frozen or tinned)
1 tablespoon chopped parsley or chives
Black pepper
15 oz tin condensed soup (choice optional)
1 tablespoon sherry
1 ½ lb. mashed potatoes beaten with 1 small egg
Method
Set oven 325F or mark 3.
First peel the potatoes and cook in salted water to make the mash.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan and fry the onion for a few minutes to soften, but not brown.
Stir in the diced turkey, sweetcorn, and herbs and season with pepper.
Gradually stir in the soup and sherry over a low heat and continue stirring until heated through.
Transfer to an ovenproof dish.
Mash the potatoes and beat in the egg.
Top the dish with mashed potato and cook in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes until browned on top.
Serve with green vegetables and chutney.
