Shepherd's Pie - Comfort Food #shepherdspie #cottagepie #pie

This shepherd's pie is made with a creamy, cheesy mashed potato topping. To me, shepherd's pie is a delicious winter comfort food, which I always look forward to making Ingredients: 500g mince (mutton/lamb is traditional!) 1 medium onion 2 medium carrots 2 stalks celery 1 TBSP minced garlic 2 bay leaves 300ml beef/lamb stock 1 TBSP worcestershire sauce 1 TBSP tomato paste 200g tinned tomatoes/ 3 medium fresh tomatoes Salt and pepper to taste Creamy mash: 1kg potato 300ml milk 50g butter 200g mature cheddar cheese Salt and white pepper to taste Tip: Add more/less milk according to how creamy you want your mash to be! I used less butter than usual, because cheddar cheese is a high fat, oily cheese
