  8. Add garlic etc to lentils in casserole and combine everything
  9. Let heat up and simmer at low temperature
  10. Grind pepper over lentils if desired
  11. Peal off knobbly parts of potato. I often leave a large amount of skin on because I like it. Choose what you prefer.
  12. Dice potatoes and start boiling salted water in pot
  13. When water is boiling add the potatoes, cover with lid and set timer for 15 minutes
  14. During cooking time you will need to lessen heat so potatoes don't boil over
  15. Preheat 220℃ oven
  16. Potatoes need to be very soft for mashing, and if done, pour out water (keep it for making cashew cream)
  17. Potatoes back into pot, lid on and now blend cashews with water at highest speed for 90 seconds
  18. 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.
  19. If using separate frying pan, transfer thickened lentils to casserole. Lentils are the base layer
  20. Top with mashed potatoes
  21. Into oven for 10-15 minutes until mash is a bit browned at peaks
  22. If lentils are a bit liquidy you can use hot-air oven, then please turn down to 200℃
