    The shepherds pie is very cool and relatively new dish believe it or not. It comes from the fusion of the British meat pies and the introduction of tomatoes and potatoes to Ireland from Mexico. Another gift that South America gave the world is the chili pepper. This happened around the 1500s. I think it’s a very natural and elegant fusion and really comforting in winter time.

    mmmm spring onions in the mash sounds yum! Mom used to put mashed potatoes on the bottom & top, guess she had less meat to deal with. never used carrots, but with lamb instead of beef, I guess that would taste good. Thanks, I'll try your recipe - watching you always makes me hungry!

    i made this last night! i used beef instead of lamb and i chucked in a diced red pepper as well - i also didn't have tomato puree or worcestershire sauce on hand, so i just put in a bit of ketchup and hoped for the best. it came out so well! i've actually never had shephard's pie before and i was shocked at how easy it was to make something so delicious. i will definitely be holding onto this recipe (and possibly making it again very soon). thanks so much!

    A useful tip I discovered is to use a potato ricer if I was creamy potatoes with no lumps at all.
    For Patty's day, I like corned beef and cabbage. It's a special treat I make once a year.

    Lamb mince is my favourite mince for spagbol or lasagne, its not as strong as beef but stronger than chicken or pork and the oilyness gives a really nice mouth feel.

  • @mari-jozilveti1209

  • @xRawrBawr
    @xRawrBawr Před 8 lety +7

    As a Welshman I would try it with leek instead of spring onions if I made it. Looks awesome though, nothing like a Shepherd's/Cottage pie when it's bucketing it down outside.

    • @CharlieMelia
      @CharlieMelia Před 6 lety +1

      As an Irishman I would totally agree with you. Scallions are a poor substitute for leeks or cabbage for that matter. But then the Welsh and the Irish always get along.

  • @miriambateman160
    @miriambateman160 Před 3 lety

    Now a family favourite. I add some of that well known “browns, seasons and thickens all in one go” mixed with water to the mince. Also we need more potato to get proportions right.

    Totally love the idea of using spring onions on the mash too! Stealing that idea. Thanks Donal!
