Instructions

  1. Cook the potatoes and butternut squash in a large saucepan of simmering, lightly salted water for about 20 minutes, until tender.

  3. Preheat the grill. Warm a baking dish with a capacity of about 1.5 litres under the grill.
  4. Drain and mash the potatoes and butternut squash, then season with a little salt and pepper.
