Description

A delightful twist on classic shepherd’s pie, combining hearty flavors and crispy baked potatoes for an easy and delicious comfort meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Russet Potatoes
  • 1 lb Ground Lamb or Beef
  • 1 Onion, chopped
  • 2 Carrots, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Beef Broth
  • 2 tbsp Tomato Paste
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • ½ cup Milk
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 cup Cheese (Cheddar or Parmesan), shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the potatoes and pierce them with a fork, then bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground lamb or beef for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart.
  3. Add chopped onion and garlic, cooking until softened for 3-5 minutes, then stir in carrots.
  4. Mix in beef broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Remove baked potatoes, cool slightly, and scoop out some flesh to mash with milk, butter, and salt until creamy.
  6. Fill potato halves with the meat mixture and top with mashed potatoes, then sprinkle with cheese and bake for an additional 15 minutes until golden.

Notes

For a twist, try sweet potatoes or a dairy-free version using coconut milk and nutritional yeast.
