Easy Shepherd's Pie
Traditional shepherd's pie uses lamb, not beef — browned with onion and peas, topped with a thick layer of mashed potato and baked until the top turns deep golden and slightly crisp.
Ingredients
Instructions
Brown the lamb thoroughly with the onion until no pink remains.
Stir in the peas and a splash of stock to loosen the mixture into a saucy, not dry, filling.
Spread the lamb mixture evenly into a baking dish, smoothing the top so the potato layer sits flat.
Top with a thick, even layer of mashed potato, roughing up the surface with a fork so it catches and crisps, then bake at 200C for 25 minutes until deep golden.
