We had a blustery cold front come through here last night. I'm wondering why I don't have something along these lines in the house.

This will be on the menu again for next week, at some point. Slightly different and half as much haha.
I love shepherds pie, but never get it. My wifes ex wanted it all the time so now she is burnt out on it forever. Uggghhhhh
When is steak and kidney pie on the menu !?
Reminds me of the U.K where I was brought up.
Also Cornish pasties, minced beef pies etc

Well then you wont like this post haha. Great timing too!
1lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup each; Corn, peas, carrots
6 Medium White potatoes
2 Medium Yellow onions
4oz peanut oil
Hot pan
Oil in, heating while I diced the onions. Onions in until seared.
Meat in, broken up and worked around while I peeled and diced the carrots and taters. Carrots and taters in boiling water, each to their own pot.
Meat well browned, broken up and mixed with the onions.
Add 1/2 tea spoon each: Black pepper, Rosemary, Paprika, Cajun seasoning, Thyme.
Add 1 heaping tea spoon each: Salt and garlic powder. Mix well.
Add corn, I used a whole small can. Add equal amount peas. Add carrots. Add 1 cup water and onion gravy mix. Mix well and let simmer while I smashed the taters with one stick butter, 1/2 tea spoon salt, 1/2 tea spoon parsley and 1 heaping tea spoon of garlic powder.
Give it a stir and mix again, off the heat. Dump taters on, smooth over. Set oven to 400F, shovel snow. In the oven for 75 minutes. 15 minutes too long. Let cool, shovel snow again, eat, lick bowl.
I got 'er now!

Yes, agreed about organs .
Talking about pies just brought back memories.

Love a good black pudding.
A big old Cottage Pie before the mens March Madness final tonight. The women's was excellent last night, hoping for a close game.
Some cheese will go on in the last 20 minutes.

I made another one Sunday.
Yeah better, and better again. More refined, with a better balance of flavours but, this last time, I forgot the Chives.
Then there is always Mouse in the House. It is a Dutch dish that throws a cup of kale into it along with a sausage ham garlic ring. Yum! Sincerely -Rave

OK great. We'll try that one. I was planning to cut the first recipe in half so this one should be just right. THANKS!
You guys might like this. The only thing I do differently is to blend it up smoother.

Potatoes, smashed together with root vegetables parsnips and rutabegas, make a special side for a special occasion.

I do like it. I never think of things like that.
Growing up in Montreal I knew it as Chinese pot pie or Pâté Chinois. My wife’s family referred to it as Cottage pie and always topped with sliced tomatoes and melted cheddar.
