Shepherd's Pie

Shepherd's Pie

A Shepherd's pie is the ultimate comfort food, it needs few ingredients, some condiments available at home and voila you have a meal ready and every one is happy on the table. Who doesn't love meat and potatoes? Its simple, its delicious, it has gravy underneath that fluffy golden potato layer, perfect meal to lift your mood, especially when one is stuck at home and the weather is wet outside.

This Lockdown is bearing us down, no matter how much we try to keep our spirits up, an uncertain future but life must go on with adjustments and accepting the new changes and the challenges. It is also teaching us in so many ways, to take life as it comes, to slow down, to focus on the necessities and the biggest  learning for me has been, we have shit control of our lives,so deal with whatever is dealt out with a smile. Life is what happens and how we accept it.  Meanwhile, lets cook so delicious meals and spread some cheer. 

This yummy pie will be ready in a little over an hour, piping hot, oozing with deliciousness, serve this with a salad and some bread on the side. This classic British dish has travelled all over the world and everyone has a favourite version. So, go ahead and add your own twists and make it your own.

This recipe is an old family recipe, that our cook use to make and  he was for me the best cook and no one can ever match to his standard  and he taught me everything he knew with generosity. 

Another Tip:  If I'm are serving this to guests, then I generally put the potato puree in a piping bag and make a pretty pattern.
