LEEK & CHEESE PIE



Leek & Cheese Pie image

leeks are in season at the moment and are very good for you so I am making the most of the good prices in the shops. This is a very nice recipe and totally vegetarian if you eat eggs that is. I like to make mine into little flans as it's easier for serving and you can get 4 small ones or 1 large from this recipe. I use low fat cheese, cream and milk and it's fine.

TRADITIONAL ENGLISH COTTAGE PIE WITH CHEESE AND LEEK TOPPING



Traditional English Cottage Pie With Cheese and Leek Topping image

Cottage pie, like its opposite lamb number, Shepherd's pie, was the ingenious idea of housewives many years ago, in order to create another warm and comforting meal usually from the Sunday Lunch left-overs! Cooked beef or lamb were diced or shredded and sometimes the vegetables were added to the meat mixture - such as peas or carrots. This recipe uses raw minced beef, but you could use minced cooked beef if you wish, I have added it as an alternative. The leeks were always added to the mashed potato topping when I was growing up - it was another way of utilising the leftovers! A bit like a Bubble and Squeak topping. I am not a lover of peas being added in my Cottage Pie, so I have suggested them as an option - I always prefer carrots as the vegetable to be added. Try to use mature Farmhouse Cheddar cheese for the topping - a little goes a long way, as it is so strong in flavour. The cheese is very luxurious, but takes this simple and comforting pie to a higher taste level, in my humble opinion! Serve bubbling hot straight from the oven with steamed cabbage, carrots or any seasonal vegetables and a jug of gravy.

1 teaspoon dried herbs or 1 -2 tablespoon fresh mixed herbs, chopped

Steps:

  • To make the pie filling:.
  • Fry the onions and carrots if using, in the butter or beef dripping until they are soft.
  • Add the minced/chopped beef and cook for about 10 to 20 minutes or until the onion and carrot have browned and the minced beef has taken on some colour and is firm. (It also depends if you are using cooked or raw minced beef.).
  • Season well with salt and pepper, then add the mixed herbs. Stir in the flour, and mix well.
  • Mix the tomato puree and Worcestershire sauce with the stock and add it to the meat mixture, bringing it all to simmering point. Simmer until the stock has reduced by aboout a third, add the peas if using and take off the heat. Set aside whilst you make the topping.
  • To make the topping:.
  • Boil the potatoes in slightly salted water then mash them well, adding half of the butter and all of the milk gradually. Season to taste.
  • If using fresh leeks, fry the leeks gently in the remaining butter, until soft and slightly coloured.
  • Stir the cooked leeks into the mashed potato mixture and give it all a good mix.
  • Assemble:.
  • Put the meat mixture into a large and deep well greased baking dish and spread the potato mixture on top; then sprinkle with the grated cheese. You can also use 4 - 6 smaller pie dishes if you wish.
  • Put into a pre-heated oven, 200C/400F/Gas Mark 6 for about 25 to 30 minutes until the topping is crusty, golden and bubbling.
