Shepherd's Pie

 
     
 
Traditionally, this was made with ground left over roast lamb. I've never had it that way, though. One piece of advice: keep it simple. This is comfort food, so you don't want to go trying to fancy it up!
1 lb. ground beef 1 onion, chopped
1/2 oz. butter or oil 1 tsp. flour
pinch of thyme stock or water
1/2 tsp salt pepper
mashed potatoes    
     
Heat the butter or oil until hot and cook the chopped onion in it until it is translucent. Add the meat and cook until it changes color. Blend in the flour, then enough stock or water to moisten the meat. Season to taste. Let it cook over a low heat until it's tasty.

Put in a greased oven dish and cover with well-mashed potatoes whipped with a little milk and butter. Brown in the oven for 20-30 minutes at 400° (GM 6). You might need to finish it off under the grill to get the potatoes nice and brown.

Serve with simple vegetables, such as peas or carrots, and a nice peppery gravy.
