Steps to make Vegan Shepherd's Pie:

- Lentils into casserole
- Add salt & pepper to please your taste
- Mince garlic (in tmx at speed 7), onion, carrots (tmx 5) and sautee with thyme in olive oil (tmx varoma speed 1 for 3min)
- Add garlic etc to lentils in casserole and combine everything
- Let heat up and simmer at low temperature
- Grind pepper over lentils if desired
- Peal off knobbly parts of potato. I often leave a large amount of skin on because I like it. Choose what you prefer.
- Dice potatoes and start boiling salted water in pot
- When water is boiling add the potatoes, cover with lid and set timer for 15 minutes
- During cooking time you will need to lessen heat so potatoes don't boil over
- Preheat 220℃ oven
- Potatoes need to be very soft for mashing, and if done, pour out water (keep it for making cashew cream)
- Potatoes back into pot, lid on and now blend cashews with water at highest speed for 90 seconds
- Start mashing up potatoes, add cashew cream (depending on type of potato you might not need all of the cream) and a dab of butter. Add salt, nutmeg and pepper to your taste.
- If using separate frying pan, transfer thickened lentils to casserole. Lentils are the base layer
- Top with mashed potatoes
- Into oven for 10-15 minutes until mash is a bit browned at peaks
- If lentils are a bit liquidy you can use hot-air oven, then please turn down to 200℃
- As I have left the peal on half of the potatoes, you can see specks of it in the baked potato crust of this just out-of-the-oven delicious shepherd's pie
