I tried this Shepherd’s Pie recipe recently, and it turned out to be a comforting and hearty meal! The combination of savory meat and creamy mashed potatoes is just perfect. Here’s how you can make it:

Ingredients:​

• 1 lb ground beef or lamb
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, diced
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 cup beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 4 cups mashed potatoes
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions:​

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef or lamb over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
3. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are soft.
4. Stir in the tomato paste, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens. Add the peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then spread the meat mixture evenly in a baking dish.
6. Spread the mashed potatoes on top of the meat mixture. If you like, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Conclusion:​

This Shepherd’s Pie is a classic comfort food that’s perfect for any day. The rich flavors and creamy potatoes will surely make it a family favorite. Enjoy!

That sounds delicious! Shepherd's Pie is one of my absolute comfort foods. I love the idea of using lamb instead of beef. Might have to give that a try! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
