Leftovers, cont...

A layer of the beef-and-sherry stew in the bottom of a pyrex dish; topped with the last of the buttered-cabbage-with-juniper; topped with the last of the smooth olive-oil mash; put in a hot oven till brown & crispy on top.

What is this?

Yup. This is exceedingly posh cottage pie. And absolutely yummy.

Olive oil mash?

Hmm, mashed potato using olive oil rather than butter, I assume.

Yup, 'zackly that.

Oh, just root veg - in this instance potato mostly, with a little turnip - mashed with lots of olive oil rather than butter. Because there was an olive crust on the stew in its original incarnation, and I wanted to pick that note up.

Oh, and I had no milk. That too...
