Tips:
- Choose the right ground meat: For a classic shepherd's pie, ground lamb is the traditional choice, but you can also use ground beef, turkey, or a mixture of meats.
- Brown the meat well: This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the dish. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and corn.
- Season the filling well: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to taste. Some good choices include garlic, onion powder, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
- Use a creamy sauce: This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the dish more flavorful. You can use a simple béchamel sauce, or you can add cheese, herbs, or other seasonings to taste.
- Top the pie with mashed potatoes: This is the traditional topping for shepherd's pie, and it helps to create a crispy, golden crust.
- Bake the pie until it is bubbly and hot: This will ensure that the filling is cooked through and the mashed potatoes are golden brown.
