Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 -3 medium carrots, chopped
500 g ground lamb
2 tablespoons tomato puree
1 large splash Worcestershire sauce
500 ml beef stock
900 g potatoes, cut into chunks
85 g butter
3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan, then soften the onion and carrots for a few minutes When soft, turn up the heat, crumble in the lamb and brown, tipping off any excess fat. Add the tomato purée and Worcestershire sauce, then fry for a few minutes Pour over the stock, bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 40 mins, uncovering halfway.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180C/ fan 160C/ gas 4, then make the mash. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10-15 mins until tender. Drain, then mash with the butter and milk.
  • Put the mince into an ovenproof dish, top with the mash and ruffle with a fork. The pie can now be chilled and frozen for up to a month. Bake for 20-25 mins until the top is starting to colour and the mince is bubbling through at the edges. (To bake from frozen, cook at 160C/fan 140C/gas 3 for 1 hr-1 hr 20 mins until piping hot in the centre. Flash under the grill to brown, if you like.) Leave to stand for 5 mins before serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shepherd's pie turned out really watery. It was still edible, but it wasn't as good as I had hoped.

The filling was good, but the mashed potato topping was a bit dry. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different recipe for the mashed potatoes.

This shepherd's pie was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more herbs and spices.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! My family loved it. The only thing I would do differently next time is add a bit more salt and pepper to the filling.
