Things to know about Shepherd’s Pie Recipe

Delicious British Traditional Shepherd’s Pie Recipe is a family favorite winter dish. Consisting of ground meat and gravy pie with a topping of mashed potato. The first origins of Shepherd’s pie appeared in 1854, after its sister dish – Cottage Pie was established over a century before. Both recipes are similar, yet Cottage Pie uses ground beef instead of lamb. The dish originally came as a way of using leftover roasted meat and the term cottage was developed as it was the only affordable meat dish for peasants. A discussion regarding the dish naming is called into question, arguing a pie should have a top and a base made of pastry and this recipe is technically a casserole topped with mashed potato. Nonetheless, this comfort food is a delicious traditional British dish.
