Shepherd's Pie
Shepherd's Pie is a delightful dish that originated in the United Kingdom. It is typically made with ground meat, such as lamb or beef, which is sautéed with vegetables like onions, carrots, and peas. The mixture is then topped with a generous layer of creamy mashed potatoes before being baked to golden perfection.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground lamb or beef
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 2 carrots diced
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup beef broth or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 cups mashed potatoes (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, cook the ground lamb or beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, frozen peas, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
- Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, beef or vegetable broth, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer the mixture for 10-15 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly.
- Transfer the meat and vegetable mixture to a baking dish.
- Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top of the meat mixture, creating a smooth layer.
- If you like, you can use a fork to create some decorative patterns on the mashed potato surface.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the mashed potatoes turn golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
