Cottage pie with Squash and Potato Mash

A delicious way to use up those extra squashes

1 tblsp oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb minced beef
Salt and pepper
1 tblsp soya sauce
1 tblsp tomato sauce
1 large squash, peeled and chopped into 1 inch square chunks
2 medium potatoes, washed and cut into 1 inch chunks
½ tsp salt
1 tblsp butter

Put the potatoes on to boil with the salt – after they have simmered for 10 minutes – add the squash.  Cook for a further 10 minutes by which time the potatoes and squash should be soft.

Drain and mash with the butter.

Whilst the potatoes are cooking, heat oil and fry onion until soft, add minced beef and salt and pepper, stir until browned then add soya sauce and tomato sauce.

Put mince into casserole dish, then spread the mash on top.  Cook in oven for 30-40 minutes at 180 C.
