In early cookery books, the dish was a means of using leftover roasted meat of any kind, and the pie dish was lined with mashed potato as well as having a mashed potato crust on top. A really good Shepherd's Pie should always start with a soffrito - that is, onion, garlic, carrots and celery sautéed on a lowish heat until sweet. It's the secret to a great flavour base that's a technique used widely by many cuisines, such as Italian cooking (for example, this Italian Shredded Beef Ragu). After this, we cook the ground / mince meat.
Instructions to make Teeney's American Shepherd's Pie:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Start the mashed potatoes: Peel and cut potatoes (1/2 inch or quartered). Place in pan and cover with cold water (1/2 in over potatoes). Set over high heat, cover and bring to a boil. [start step 3 then return to potatoes] ((Once boiling, uncover, decrease the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until tender and easily crushed with tongs, approximately 15-20 mins.))
- In a large sauté pan with oil, sauté onions and carrots, then garlic. Add ground beef and cook through until brown.
- Continue filling: Sprinkle meat with flour and toss to coat. Add salt/pepper and cumin (optional), add Worcestershire Sauce, Beef Broth, and Rosemary/ Thyme (optional). Brind to boil, cover and simmer low and covered until sauce is thick (10-15 mins).
- Mash Potatoes: Add half-and-half or milk, butter, and salt/pepper to drained potatoes. Mash until smooth.
- Continue filling: Add corn and green beans (peas optional) for just a few mins to heat.
- Combine in lightly greased 3 qt casserole dish: Beef filling on bottom. Sprinkle layer of cheese on top. Top with mashed potatoes. (Make sure the potatoes seal the beef filling in so it doesn't boil and create a mess.) Use a fork to make rivets on the top of the mashed potatoes. Add small amount of paprika on top.
- Bake dish for 25-30 minutes in oven at 400°F. Let cool (about 15 mins).
Spread mashed potatoes over top and using the back of a spoon, make decorative swirls over the top. Ground beef and onions seasoned with thyme and made creamy with vegetable soup are smothered in mashed potatoes, topped with Colby cheese and baked for a hot, hearty dinner. This is an American Shepherd's pie. Ground beef, peas, and carrots is what we use over here, with LOTS of cheddar on top :) I've never seen anyone in the US serve Shepherd's pie with anything but ground beef. Shepherd pie is one of those dishes you can never get enough of.
