Best 8 Porter And Vegetable Shepherds Pie Recipes

VEGETARIAN SHEPHERD'S PIE

Steps:

• Make the mashed potatoes: Peel the potatoes. Boil them until fork tender (you want them to mash easily). Drain, mash, and mix in yogurt and butter. Season to taste. (You can also use the Instant Pot method which is quick and easy! That's what I do.)
• In a large oven-safe pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until fragrant. Add mushrooms, carrots, and whole herbs (you will pull the herbs out later). Sauté until carrots are softened.
• Add tomato paste and flour to the pot and stir. Pour in the red wine (sizzzzle) and scrape all the browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Let the wine cook out for a minute or two. Slowly add the broth, stirring it in until a gravy starts to form. Season with salt. Simmer over low heat to get it thickened even further.
• Remove the herbs. Stir in the peas, spread the mashed potatoes on top (brush with butter to be extra awesome), and bake for 15 minutes at 350. I finished mine on the broil setting for a few minutes to get it nice and brown on top.
• Scoop up a hearty serving and live your best cozy life.

GRAMMY'S SHEPHERD'S PIE

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.

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring a gallon of water and 2 tablespoons salt to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes to boiling water and boil for about 15 to 20 minutes, until soft; a knife should go in with almost no resistance.
• Meanwhile, prepare the filling: In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with high sides or an enameled cast-iron braiser over medium-high heat, bring the lentils, thyme and 2 cups of the broth to a simmer with 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce the heat and continue to cook the lentils, partly covered, until they are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Transfer the lentils to a bowl.
• Finish the topping: In a small saucepan or a microwave oven, heat 6 tablespoons of the butter and milk together until butter melts. Drain potatoes well and return to pot. Using a masher or a ricer, mash hot potatoes until smooth. Mix in the hot butter mixture and sour cream just until blended. Stir in 1/2 of the Parmigiano. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and set aside.
• Finish the filling: Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Melt the butter in the 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until they are deep golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add leeks, carrots and garlic, and continue to cook until tender, another 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the tomato paste and stir, cooking until it is well combined, another 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stir and cook for 1 minute. Add remaining 1 1/2 cups broth, cooked lentils and peas, and cook until thickened. Remove thyme stems and stir in lemon juice to taste.
• Top the mixture with dollops of the mashed potatoes, then spread them out over the top. (Or transfer the lentil mixture to a 3-quart casserole dish and spread into an even layer, and top with potatoes.) Sprinkle with the remaining Parmigiano. Transfer to the oven and, if the mixture is at the top edges of your pan, set a foil-lined baking sheet underneath the pan to catch any drips. Bake the pie until the potatoes have begun to brown and the edges are bubbling, about 30 minutes. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
