Easy Chicken Delight

Meat mixture:
300g chicken strips, unseasoned
75g leek strips
1 tbsp fat
approx. 200g crushed tomatoes
1-2 cloves of garlic
½ tsp salt
½ tsp basil
½ tsp black pepper

mashed potatoes:
2 packets Mummon muusi mashed potato powder
6 dl milk
6 dl water
1 tbsp margarine

Prepare the meat mixture: Slice the leek. Brown the chicken strips and the leek in fat in a pan. Add the crushed tomatoes, garlic and spices. Simmer for about 5 min. and check the flavor.

Prepare the mashed potatoes: Bring the milk and water to a boil in a saucepan, add the margarine and remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir the mashed potato powder into the liquid. Let the mash stand for a moment with the lid on and stir until smooth.

Assemble the casserole in an approximately 2-liter baking dish. Spread half of the mashed potatoes on the bottom of the greased dish. Pour the meat mixture over the mash layer and add the rest of the mash. Level the surface and bake at 200 degrees on the middle rack of the oven for about 25 min.

Potato casserole is gluten-free and lactose-free if you use lactose-free milk drink.

If you wish you can add about 3 dl of grated cheese on top. You can make a vegetarian version by replacing the meat with button mushrooms (about 200g) and vegetable strips. A suitable amount of vegetables is for example 300g frozen vegetable mix.
