SHEPHERD'S PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and prepare a 9x13 baking dish by spraying with nonstick cooking spray.
• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook until tender. Remove from water and set aside.
• While the potatoes are cooking, brown the ground beef in a large skillet with the diced onion and minced garlic. Season with salt, pepper, parsley, thyme, and rosemary.
• Stir in the frozen corn, peas, and carrots.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the beef broth and corn starch until well combined. Pour over the beef mixture and simmer over medium low heat until thickened.
• Pour the meat mixture in the prepared baking dish and set aside.
• Prepare the potato topping by seasoning the cooked potatoes with salt, pepper and garlic.
• Stir in the butter, milk, and parmesan cheese. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth.
• Spread the potato mixture over the top of the meat mixture.
• Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the potatoes have begun to brown and the sauce is bubbling.
• Remove from oven and allow to rest for five to 10 minutes before serving.

SHEPHERD'S PIE - A CLASSIC COMFORT FOOD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. (Start chopping your vegetables while the potatoes cook)
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and allow to cook until soft (about 10 minutes). Drain.
• Slice butter into several pieces and add to the hot potatoes, allowing it to melt.
• Add the milk/cream and use an electric mixer to beat the potatoes just until smooth.
• Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste, then beat on high until the texture is to your liking.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan.
• Add garlic, onion, celery, and carrot, and beef and saute, stirring often.
• Turn heat down to low and season with sea salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat 1/2 cup beef broth and whisk in 2-4 Tbsp flour until smooth. Pour over the meat/vegetable mixture, stirring well. Continue to cook on low heat until sauce thickens slightly.
• Transfer meat mixture to a 13×9″ casserole dish or divide evenly into 6 smaller bowls/bakers.
• Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly across the top of the meat mixture.
• Spoon mashed potatoes on top and spread evenly across the surface with the back of a spoon.
• Cook for about 20 minutes or until mixture is heated through and the surface begins to firm slightly.
• I usually broil for 1-2 minutes to get a nice, light crisp and golden brown on the surface of the potatoes.

VEGETARIAN SHEPHERD'S PIE

Steps:

• Make the mashed potatoes: Peel the potatoes. Boil them until fork tender (you want them to mash easily). Drain, mash, and mix in yogurt and butter. Season to taste. (You can also use the Instant Pot method which is quick and easy! That's what I do.)
• In a large oven-safe pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until fragrant. Add mushrooms, carrots, and whole herbs (you will pull the herbs out later). Sauté until carrots are softened.
• Add tomato paste and flour to the pot and stir. Pour in the red wine (sizzzzle) and scrape all the browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Let the wine cook out for a minute or two. Slowly add the broth, stirring it in until a gravy starts to form. Season with salt. Simmer over low heat to get it thickened even further.
• Remove the herbs. Stir in the peas, spread the mashed potatoes on top (brush with butter to be extra awesome), and bake for 15 minutes at 350. I finished mine on the broil setting for a few minutes to get it nice and brown on top.
• Scoop up a hearty serving and live your best cozy life.
