Prepare the potato topping: Peel the potatoes and cut them into even-sized chunks. Place them in a large saucepan, cover with cold water, add a generous pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain thoroughly and return to the hot pan for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes - 2
While the potatoes are cooking, start the filling: Heat the oil or butter in a large, oven-safe skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb mince and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned all over. Drain off any excess fat.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 3
Add the chopped onion and diced carrots to the skillet with the lamb. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened slightly. Stir in the minced garlic (if using) and tomato puree and cook for another minute until fragrant.
โฑ๏ธ 7 minutes - 4
Pour in the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it gently simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
โฑ๏ธ 15 minutes - 5
Mash the potatoes: Add the butter and warm milk to the drained potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy, adding more milk if needed to reach your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 6
Assemble the pie: If your skillet is not oven-safe, transfer the lamb mixture to an ovenproof dish. Spoon the mashed potato evenly over the lamb filling, spreading it to the edges to seal. Use a fork to create ridges or swirls on the surface of the potato โ these will crisp up nicely during baking.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 7
Bake the Shepherd's Pie: Preheat your oven to 200ยฐC (400ยฐF, Gas Mark 6). Place the dish on a baking sheet (to catch any potential drips) and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potato topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
โฑ๏ธ 30 minutes - 8
Rest and serve: Let the Shepherd's Pie stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to set slightly.
