THE BEST SHEPHERD'S PIE
We stuck with tradition and made our shepherd's pie with lamb, but you could easily swap in ground beef. The saucy filling is packed with tender vegetables and the creamy topping is inspired by the Irish potato dish, colcannon, and is filled with cabbage, leeks and cheese.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- For the topping: Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Season with 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and reserve the saucepan.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, onion, celery, garlic, thyme and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and tender, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook until it turns brick red, about 8 minutes. Add the lamb, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, about 7 minutes.
- Stir in the peas. Stir in the flour until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add the broth and Worcestershire and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
- To finish the topping, melt the butter in the large saucepan over medium heat. Add the cabbage and leeks and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the heavy cream, 1 tablespoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper, and cook until warm, about 1 minute. Return the potatoes to the pan with the cabbage and add the cheese. Mash with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the egg yolks.
- Transfer the filling to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the topping, swirling to create texture. Make sure that the sides are sufficiently covered so the filling doesn't leak through. Bake until the filling is bubbly and the top is lightly golden, about 35 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
GREEK-STYLE SHEPHERD'S PIE W/BRIAM
Shepherd's pie is classic comfort food. What's not to love about the layer of veggies, meat sauce, and luscious mashed potatoes? SO delicious! I added a Greek twist by swapping out the classic carrots, peas, and corn (actually, I kept the corn) with Briam, Greek Ratatouille. I also added some feta cheese and we fell in love with this dish. Gone in minutes! Follow my easy tutorial and I highly recommend that you make a double batch for the freezer.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 °F, 220 °C.
- Make the Mashed Potatoes:
- Place potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Season with 1-2 teaspoons of salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until fork-tender. Drain the water and mash the potatoes.
- Add the butter and mash until it is absorbed. Then slowly add the milk. Mix until smooth.
- Season with salt and black pepper.
- Note: You can make the mashed potatoes 2 ways: add just enough milk until they are at the consistency that you like. Or, add all of the milk and then cook the mixture over medium heat until thickened (bechamel sauce texture). It's up to you.
- Add the parmesan cheese and mix it all together then, set it aside.
- Make the meat filling:
- Cook the onions with the olive oil over medium heat until soft and golden. About 8 minutes. Add the garlic and warm through about 20 seconds.
- Add the ground meat and cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Pat the eggplant pieces dry and add to the meat.
- Add the seasonings and the pureed tomatoes. Cook over medium heat until the eggplant is soft and mushy, and the sauce is thick. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with parsley and set aside.
- Make the Vegetable (Briam) Layer:
- Cook the onions with olive oil over medium heat until soft. About 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, bell peppers, and zucchini.
- Season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 more minutes.
- Add the tomato puree and cook until the vegetables are soft, and the sauce thickens.
- Add the spinach and cook until wilted.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add sugar if the sauce is too acidic.
- Assemble the Shepherd's Pie:
- Place the Briam (vegetable) layer in the bottom of a 9 by 13 by a 3-inch baking pan. Add some corn, if desired. Crumble some feta cheese on top.
- Spread the meat sauce over the vegetables and feta cheese.
- Top with the mashed potatoes and spread.
- Bake on the center rack of your preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the top is golden.
- You may turn the broiler element on for 4-5 minutes. Keep a close eye on it so that it does not burn.
- Set aside and allow it to set for at least 30 minutes.
- Serve!
