Hello everybody, it’s me, Dave, welcome to my recipe site. Today, I’m gonna show you how to make a distinctive dish, shepherd's pie. One of my favorites. For mine, I am going to make it a little bit tasty. This will be really delicious.

Yes, shepherd's pie is predominantly thought of as Irish or British. But since I'm Scottish, I thought I'd give it a unique twist to suit my ancestral tastes. The use of lamb, the smoky, heather taste of Guinness® Draught (Irish, I admit), and the topping of sharp Cheddar and smoked paprika give this version its unique, smoky-sweet flavor.

Shepherd's Pie is one of the most favored of current trending foods on earth. It is easy, it is fast, it tastes delicious. It’s appreciated by millions daily. Shepherd's Pie is something that I’ve loved my entire life. They’re fine and they look fantastic.

To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can cook shepherd's pie using 7 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Shepherd's Pie:
  1. Take 1 lb ground beef
  2. Prepare 1 can corn
  3. Get 1/2 onion chopped
  4. Prepare 8 large potatoes
  5. Prepare 1 seasoned salt to taste
  6. Make ready 1/4 cup bbq sauce
  7. Get 1/2 cup grated cheese

Here in the states we are more of a beef eating culture than a lamb eating one, and when one is served "shepherd's pie" here, it is most often made with ground beef. Traditionally, shepherd's pie is made with lamb (hence the name). However, as the dish gained wider popularity outside of its native English homeland (where using beef would make this a cottage pie), beef became a common substitute, especially in America where it's more widely available than ground lamb. These shepherd's pie recipes run the range from the traditional (featuring ground or minced lamb) to the modestly modified (ground beef instead of lamb) to the more modern and experimental (vegan or paleo shepherd's pies).

Instructions to make Shepherd's Pie:
  1. Peel potatoes and cut into cubes.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook potatoes.
  3. In another pot cook ground beef. Add chopped onion to pot once beef is slightly browned.
  4. add the seasoned salt to taste.
  5. Add corn and bbq sauce, cook for about 10 mins.
  6. preheat oven to 400°C.
  7. Drain potatoes. Add salt to taste. Mash potatoes.
  8. Using a 9 x 9 pan, add the ground beef into the pan. Take the mashed potatoes and put on top of the ground beef.
  9. Spread the shredded cheese on top of the potatoes. Put the pan into the oven for 15 mins.
  10. Broil for 3 mins to toast the cheese.

You can't go wrong with any of these savory one-pot comfort-food casseroles, complete meals that also feature veggies, a savory gravy, and a mashed potato (or a surprise. Shepherd's pie is traditionally made with a ground-lamb filling, but we make ours with ground beef. The sauce is really simple and flavorful, but the best part is the insanely fluffy mashed potato.
