Shepherd's Pie Recipe - Cooking Index
Shepherd's Pie is one of England's most famous dishes. At its simplest it is made of minced lamb (hence the Shepherd name) covered with mashed potato. A layer of cheese may also be added on top, which will give the Shepherd's Pie a crispier, more appealing top (and make it taste more cheesy). Shepherd's Pie is often confused with Cottage Pie, which can be made to exactly the same recipe but should be made with minced beef instead of minced lamb.
