Or in my case, all-year-round-favourite.
Whats the difference between Cottage Pie and Shepherds Pie?
There is quite often confusion over the difference betweenShepherds Pieand Cottage Pie.
(That crusty top iseverything!!)
The only difference is thatShepherds Pieis made with lamb instead of beef.
So if you want, just swap the beef in this recipe with lamb and youll have aShepherds Pie!
What goes in Cottage Pie
Heres what you need for Cottage Pie.
And heres what you need for the mashed potato topping.
I like to putparmesan cheeseon my Cottage Pie because it makes the top extra crispy and golden.
But any melting cheese will work great.
Cottage Pie from scratch
This Cottage Pie is made from scratch, and its very straightforward.
It will keep in the fridge for 4 days assembled and ready to heat, or once cooked.
it’s possible for you to also freeze Cottage Pie 100% perfectly.
or thaw then bake.
Cooked leftovers also freeze well.
I recently served it with thisCarrot Saladwith a Honey Dijon Dressing which was a hit!
Updated 2020 with fresh new photos and video.
No change to recipe I wouldnt dare!
