Ok sorry for my punny titles, I just can't help it haha! So here's last night's dinner - the every so comforting Shepard's Pie.
Here's my quick and easy recipe to whip up for weekday dinners.
Ingredients
- 300g minced beef/lamb
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 4-5 medium potatoes
- 2-3 tablespoon butter
- grated cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- dashes of worcestershire sauce
- salt, pepper & dried mixed herbs
- Preheat oven at 200 degrees celsius.
- Submerge the potatoes in a bowl of water and put in microwave on high for 8-10mins.
- In the meantime, heat a pan with oil and sweat the onion till translucent then add the beef/lamb. Add the seasonings and carrots, then fry for about 5-6mins till meat is cooked or dark brown in colour.
- Pierce potatoes with a fork to ensure they are soft in the centre. Drain and peel them, then mash and mix well with butter.
- Assemble pie in a oven-proof dish. Dish the meat mixture into the base, then top with the mashed potatoes and flatten it out to a smooth top.
- Sprinkle top of potato layer with generous portion of cheese, grate from fresh black pepper and place into oven for 25-30mins till cheese melts and bubbles.
- Serve and enjoy :)
