Scrumptious Shepherd's Pie image

Many attempts at Shepherd's Pie have been forced down by my willing gastronomical guinea pigs. Some of these attempts didn't even make it that far. Finally, I cracked the code to a delicious, rustic, and authentic (if you use lamb) Shep... that is nothing short of amazing simplicity.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb ground turkey (ground lamb, beef, or a mixture can also be used)
1 red onion (large, diced)
2 carrots (grated)
3 garlic cloves (crushed)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon tomato puree
2 tablespoons olive oil

2 lbs red potatoes (boiled)
2 egg yolks

1 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Add ground beef and seasonings to pan over high heat and begin to brown for about three minutes; then add vegetables and continue to saute, reducing heat to medium.
  • When meat is browned, bring heat back to medium high and add Worcestershire, tomato paste, and wine, cooking until nearly evaporated.
  • Add chicken stock and simmer until liquids begin to thicken.
  • Mash potatoes and incorporate egg yolks and Parmesan cheese (salt and pepper to taste).

Top with additional Parmesan if desired and bake at 350 for ~20 minutes until potatoes are golden brown.

This shepherd's pie was a bit time-consuming to make, but it was definitely worth the effort.

I thought this recipe was a bit too complicated for a weeknight meal, but the end result was worth it.

This shepherd's pie was a bit too salty for my taste, but the flavor was otherwise good.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but this recipe didn't turn out well for me. The lamb was tough and the vegetables were mushy.

I thought this shepherd's pie was just okay. The lamb was a bit dry and the vegetables were a bit bland.

I'm not sure what went wrong with this recipe, but it was the worst shepherd's pie I've ever had. The lamb was tough and the vegetables were undercooked.

I've made shepherd's pie many times before, but this recipe was by far the best. The lamb was so tender and flavorful, and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again!
