Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 pound Yukon gold potatoes peeled and cubed
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups leftover beef stew from Beef Stew and Beer Biscuits, recipe follows
4 celery stalks, chopped
4 carrots, peeled and sliced into 1-inch thick rounds
4 red potatoes, chopped into large dice
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 (1-pound) chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (14.5-ounce) can less sodium beef broth
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon hot sauce
Salt and fresh ground black pepper
2 1/4 cups all-purpose baking mix, recipe follows
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup beer
6 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup shortening

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the potatoes, reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through and tender. Drain, return to pot and mash with a potato masher.
  • In a small pot over low heat, add the butter and milk and heat until hot. Mix the butter and milk mixture to the mashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. (For very creamy potatoes use a hand mixer to incorporate the milk and butter mixture. Only mix for about 45 seconds to prevent potatoes from getting gummy.) Set aside.
  • Evenly divide the beef stew into 4 (11-ounce) ramekins. Top with the mashed potatoes and bake until the stew is bubbling and potatoes are slightly browned on top, about 30 minutes.
  • In a 6-quart slow cooker combine the celery, carrots, potatoes, onions, thyme and beef. In a large bowl, stir together all the remaining ingredients and pour over the beef and vegetables in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 5 hours. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with Beer Biscuits.
  • Beer Biscuits:
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients with a whisk until just combined. Using 2 spoons divide dough into 4 even mounds and put on a baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
  • All-Purpose Baking Mix:
  • In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the shortening with a pastry knife or fork until the mixture is well blended. Use in recipes that call for Bisquick or all-purpose mix.

INSTANT POT® SHEPHERD'S PIE



Instant Pot® Shepherd's Pie image

This family friendly shepherd's pie uses ground beef (instead of the traditional lamb), and your Instant Pot® or multi-cooker pressure cooker to prepare the filling and potatoes.

Provided by fabeveryday

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     UK and Ireland     Irish

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground beef
1 cup onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon thyme
1 cup beef broth
2 cups frozen peas and carrots
3 medium potatoes, peeled
½ cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat oil and add ground beef, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook until ground beef has browned and onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Pour in beef broth and add frozen peas and carrots. Stir until everything is well blended and turn off Saute function.
  • Place your Instant Pot's® metal collapsible trivet in the pot so that it rests a little bit above the meat mixture. Place the peeled potatoes on top of the trivet. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions. Set timer for 15 minutes if potatoes are on the smaller side or 20 minutes if they are medium or large. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions for 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Open the lid and transfer potatoes to a bowl. Turn off Instant Pot® and carefully remove the metal trivet (it will be hot).
  • Add half-and-half, butter, and garlic salt to bowl with the potatoes. Mash until well blended.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Assemble the pie by pouring the meat mixture from the Instant Pot® into an 8-inch square baking pan. Spoon the mashed potatoes over the meat mixture and spread out evenly.
  • Broil the shepherd's pie in the preheated oven until the top starts to golden and brown, about 3 minutes.
