SHEPHERD'S PIE WITH GARLIC POTATO TOPPING



Shepherd's Pie With Garlic Potato Topping image

I had a favorite recipe for Shepherds Pie that I have misplaced. I searched recipe sites like crazy trying to find it, or one similar to it, and this is what i came up with. Mine was not a garlicky topping but very similar in the fact that you beat egg into the topping(and a little cheddar cheese) and i would top it with a little bit of fine, dry breadcrumbs and a shake of parmesan once i spread it over the meat layer.If you are not a garlic fan you could probably just leave it out. Sometimes i would spread a can of cream corn over the meat layer,however this recipe calls for corn kernels to be mixed right in,you could probably still do either.My recipe also called for the thyme & savory which i like the flavor of. This recipe was credited to "New Canadian Basics"

GRAMMY'S SHEPHERD'S PIE



Grammy's Shepherd's Pie image

"The secret to this recipe is searing the meat substitute to develop some caramelized flavor and texture. It also doesn?t hurt that the whole thing is covered in mashed potatoes!" says Damaris.

Provided by Damaris Phillips

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 large russet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and coarsely diced
Kosher salt
3/4 cup sour cream
1 large egg
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 bunch scallions, green parts only, sliced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 carrots, finely diced
2 ribs celery, finely diced
1 onion, finely diced
1 pound ground beef substitute (such as soy crumbles)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup porter beer, at room temperature
1 cup vegetable stock, warmed
1/2 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup frozen shelled edamame
2 tablespoons vegetarian steak sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Make the potatoes: Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold salted water. Bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 14 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain and place the potatoes in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
  • Combine the sour cream and egg, then add to the potatoes; season with a pinch of salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Whip, adding 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking water at a time, until smooth and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Fold in all but 1 tablespoon of the scallions and set aside.
  • Make the filling: Melt the butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion and beef substitute and saute until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the top and saute to cook off the flour flavor, about 1 minute. Whisk in the beer and stock until combined. Stir in the corn, edamame, steak sauce, garlic powder and red pepper flakes until combined. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook to reduce the liquid by one-third, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
  • Fill six 4-inch cast-iron skillets (or ramekins) halfway with the filling. Divide the mashed potatoes among the pans. Place the skillets on a baking sheet and bake until the mashed potatoes start to brown and the sauce is bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Top with the remaining scallions.
