"This recipe is very simple to prepare yet delicious. It started off as a way to use up 1kg of mushrooms which were starting to go soft and ended up as a favourite dish. Think of it as shepherd's pie with mushrooms instead of meat."

ingredients

1 kg mushroom
1 large onion
250 ml gravy (instant) or 250 ml vegetable stock
1 (100 g) packet mashed potatoes
50 g cheddar cheese (grated)

directions

Slice the mushrooms into small pieces and fry them in a covered pan until soft.
Cut the onion in small pieces and fry it, adding water to prevent drying.
Prepare the stock or gravy - I used instant gravy granules (Bisto onion gravy) but other varieties can be used.
Mix all these together and spread evenly in an oven dish.
Prepare the mashed potatoes - instant works juse fine - and spread it evenly over the surface of the other ingredients.
Spread some grated cheddar over the top - this gives it a great colour as well as adding flavour.
Finally, pop it in the oven for around 20 minutes, or until the surface has a rich red-gold colour.
