Shepherd's Pie

Okay - we made this last night and it was as close to perfect as it could get!!!

What you will need to get:

1lb - ground Beef/lamb/pork - take your pick or make a mix.
1 cup - frozen veggies ( peas, corn, carrots, peppers)
1 med - onion ( we used a red onion, its a bit sweeter)
4 cloves - garlic ( chop it up)
3 Tablespoons - Worcestershire Sauce or Steak Sauce
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Mash For on Top:
5-6 med potatoes (skins on)
1/2 slab - cream cheese
5 tablespoons - Sour Cream
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup milk/cream
** Ken thinks that a really old/aged cheddar grated in this would be perfect too, so 3/4 cup grated cheese

How to make this: Preheat Oven to 400
1) boil potatoes ( cut them into 1/4's and boil in a pot with water til soft) and wait. In the meantime....
2) Saute in a large pan (onion, garlic, oil) til soft
3) Add meat - then add salt/pepper/worcestershire sauce
when meat is all brown and cooked - taste, see if you need more salt and or pepper
4) Add in frozen veggies ( using frozen veggies keeps them from turning to mush later)

5) MASHIN TIME!!!
a) strain water out of potatoes, then dump them back into pot you boiled them in,
b) add butter/cream cheese/sour cream
c) use a large fork or potato masher and start mashing
d) once all potatoes are mashed, add in milk or cream to to the final whipping.

6) Put meat mix in a dish that is oven safe.
7) cover with mash potatoes
8) pack it down
9) Put on the lowest rack in your oven and set the timer for 30 minutes.
10) at 30 minutes you can take a fork and see if the tatters are crisping yet..

When its golden or cripsy enough for you, take it out and get amongst it.

We had some hot sauce on the side, a buttery hot sauce to dip it in.....

AMAZING!!!!!
