Hello John. I followed this recipe yesterday, except I used beef so cottage pie then. The only thing I did differently was use supermarket frozen mixed veg (carrot, peas, green beans and sweetcorn) instead of the carrots and turnips you used. It worked a treat and I got massive praise from my wife and mother in law. They don't know about your channel and they just think I'm brilliant so I'm going to keep it that way. Thanks.
I don't really cook often but I wanted to treat my husband to something nice. This was my first time making Shepherds pie and it turned out really great. Thanks John.
Hi John, I love watching and listening to your recipe shows, my father was from Sunderland and you sound like him. Your recipes are brilliant, My husband of 36 years has always said I was a good cook but you have made me an even better cook. Thank you so much. Linda x

John, you made me a misty-eyed with this recipe. My mum would make cottage pie every year on the first really cold day of winter. Thank you for the wonderful memories. Blessings to you and your family...

Ha ha, I never thought of that!! I'm not a lamb person and I never put the two and two together on why it's called Shepard's pie.. I can't stop watching these videos John, They're fantastic!!
True comfort in this moment, we are battening down hatches and sitting in enjoying shepherd pie. Thank you for using lamb..never get tired of the Golden Oldies in the winter, we won't notice Eric flying around 😃😃😃😃😃. Thank you 👍🏼
Thanks for the video. So many people don't know that Shepherd's pie is usually lamb - hence the name. If we use beef it is cottage pie. I watched a chef who used chutney -- I tried it and now always use it.
Hello John, I love all your recipes and the way you cook is how I was taught by my domestic science teacher in the early 70's. I've continued to cook, and taught my mother who became an expert in cooking English dishes. You've brought back some wonderful memories with your recipes. Thank you.

I've been making shepherd's pie for 30 years + .... it's a British staple for sure ! ... but I tried this, as a result of previous successes with John's recipes ..... I really enjoyed it... the dried thyme, the finely chopped swede, cheese on top were new to me.....and surprisingly (To me) there was no need to add extra liquid... I thought it may be a bit dry.... nope...it wasn't... it was spot on ! .... gotta hand it to John Kirkwood, his recipes work.... PS. I made this from John's book, rather than keep referring to the video.
I made your pie recipe. It was delicious. It has been a complete success. I had changed something, instead of mashed potatoes I used instant puree for lack of time. Thanks for your videos

Sadly, lamb is not readily available in my area of the US, but the beef version of this recipe is extraordinary. I faced a few challenges, though; the 'neeps' had to be attacked......yes attacked, with my electric knife. Thankfully, John's instructions were so precise it enabled me to have all components of this dish ready for the oven at the same time...whew! I now have a new Sunday dinner favorite. Thank you,
Thanks again for watching Jeannette, much appreciated, sorry you had a struggle with your turnip, they can be a bit difficult to peel and chop, you could use diced potatoes or parsnip if you find it a bit easier. And thank you once again for you kindness and help😉👍 much appreciated.

Great recipe. I am making this dish this weekend for the 3rd time. I like to use a good prime eye round steak and slow cook it then shred it, so Cottage Pie. We like Golden Yukon potatoes for mash and we keep the skins on, same with our carrots. Thanks John.

This is the first recipe I have come across that doesn’t use wine or stock! I’m giving this ago seems so much easier. Last winter I used your steak pie recipe and it went down a treat. So I’m definitely going to use this but making the beef version so it will be cottage pie.
Wonderful. I've never made Shepherds pie with Lamb. I was raised in Alaska and was raised on Moose, so, I've made it with beef and moose. I'll have to give your recipe with lamb a try. Oh and congrats on your website!
@@eugenedanker2377 Exactly. It's where the name comes from. You can also put some chopped leeks into the mash (my Nan used to do this, very nice. Oh and she used to use Rosemary instead of Thyme)
I’m loving “swede” from a Swede I think originally the vegetable was a turnip and the new type was brought from Sweden so called a sw3de to distinguish it from a turnip this was in the mediaeval period I believe 😊

Well .. Mr.John .. I have again learned a simple trick from your warm kitchen .. to crush the bouillon cube ..sprinkle it over the meat .. Thank you for your kind knowledge of your England’s kitchen.. Humbled to learn .. thank you and your wife for sharing your time and skill from a warm kitchen to great dinner ..🙏🏼🎁
Thanks, John! I only found your channel last week, and as I haven’t got any corned beef to hand tried this excellent recipe. Minced lamb is hard to find here in Spain, but we have a friendly butcher, and I had some in the freezer. Thanks for a very tasty lunch!
This dish has been a lifelong favorite of mine for 50 yrs. It's always a hit !!! Being from the states I've always had it with beef or venison and used peas instead of turnips. But will certainly be adding them next time; I love them. Great video
I just noticed your technique of using a paper towel on the cutting board for the trimmings. Just fold back the paper towel when you need to cut. Simple and brilliant! I will use this. BTW, Russet potatoes are mealy while Yukon Gold are creamy. For a baked potato it's hard to beat a Russet but for french fries Yukon Gold are superior. Since they are quite a bit different from each other, I wonder how they compare with the potatoes you're using, whether more mealy or more creamy. Visually speaking, I'd say your potatoes are more mealy so Russet potatoes are the better substitute.
You videos on meat pies are very helpful , as you take the time to walk through making a proper hot crust pastry dough , a winter warmer that I like to make is Scouse
Ok so many wins. I love when you post a video. I love Shepard’s pie. I love that I got to see you and your wife (you guys are better than what I imagined you two to look like!) and now we can support you. Congrats and thanks for the website!!! So exciting!
Thank You for using LAMB as is the CORRECT WAY! In the states many places use BEEF, I tell them that is Cottage Pie and often get " Well ..... that is how we make it here". Another great video.
I do a layer of beef with gravy, then a layer of veggies. The potatoes can be a bit tricky but if you made enough spuds, it works out great and you don’t have to make gravy later or when you freeze it. cheers

my local regional commercial food supplier also serves home deliveries if you order in bulk quantities. One is advised to have available deep freezer space and pantry cupboard space. Fortunately I shop in larger quantities to save fuel costs and my travel time. This business also delivers weekly. My choice this order was 10 pounds of frozen ground lamb in one pound packages and 10 kilos of individually frozen chicken drumsticks. I'll be making plenty of Shepherds Pie in the near future.
I thought to cook a pie to our family and found that John also has a video for that. Thank you John. Also your baguettes that I make are better and better. Thank you.

OK just to let the people know, what Steve refers to as a Turnip is called Swede where I come from Turnips are those little white beetroot size root veg. But as always a pleasure to watch. I also like to add some frozen peas to the pie makes it a complete meal.
I think Swedes are called 'neeps' in Scotland. Also, remember hearing that they have a mild yet flavorful taste, and one needs a hacksaw to halve them. I'm going to scour the markets until I find one for this Shepard's Pie, and hope I do not cut myself in the process.

Hi John, have you ever tried laying some cheese slices on top of the mince before you put the potato on? It is really nice. You still top the potato with grated cheddar for the added luscious topping. Just a tip from me to you 👍🏽
What a handsome couple you are, John. Our local grocery store periodically carries ground lamb now. I will have to try it. As we were driving back from my parents in Virginia yesterday, my daughter for the 1st time noticed all the flocks of sheep along Interstate 81. I told her lambing season is at hand and the family farm operations will have their hands full.
Glad you made that point at the end, I have seen way too many restaurants put "Shepherd's Pie" on their menu but then it uses beef. One of my major pet peeves
Oh that shepherds pie looks absolutely delicious. Thanks very much for another winner recipe. If I'm honest, I'll go for a couple of portions when I make this!
John, it is a wintery mix here in the mountains of Upper East Tennessee. The mountains behind the house is covered in snow and wind is biting at the moment. What better to serve the family than a Sheppard's Pie. Since I have a freezer full of venison, I guess technically it is a Hunter's Pie? Yorkshire Pudding with and a brown gravy will top it off. My granddaughter wants a dessert so blackberry cobbler for her.
Oh boy does that sound delicious Ron. I hope you loved your Hunter's Pie. This is one of my favourite things to eat. I make a big batch, using Beef which technically makes it a Cottage Pie but most people still call it Shepherd's, when it's done I can get 8-9 portions which I put in individual foil dishes and freeze, easy meals for cold & windy nights. Your comment is sending me out to the freezer for one of them lol. Doubt I could manage a dessert but hope yours hit the spot.
i only mash 1/2 my potatoes and just mash the other 1/2 with a couple squishes . i like your finished product. i cannot believe the amount of folks who insist on using beef..... thanks for Canada
I love that this is actually really simple to make. I can't wait to try my horrible hand at it. The only problem will be actually finding ground lamb where I live. I absolutely adore lamb but its SO hard to come by here in Ohio.
You can use ground beef instead B. Thanks for watching my friend. My latest video pie recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Individual Steak Pie profoodhomemade.com/individual-steak-pies/
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade I finally got all the ingredients together, searched all over town for the lamb and managed to find the last two at a Whole Foods. Made the dish and it turned out FANTASTICALLY! The only minor issue I had was that it ended up very...juicy? Like, there was an entire two centimeters of standing juice when I scooped my portion out. I'm terrible at cooking so I have no idea why, but I figured I might have cooked it in the pot at too high a temperature initially. Any ideas as to why? (either way it tastes amazing when drizzled over top)
@@BowandSvent When you scooped the slice of pie out of the baking tray?? Odd. Sometimes there's a bit of fat but juice? I assume you followed the recipe right?

Hi John, as an old Sunderland lad of the 1950's and 60's (but an Aussie for the last 54 years) I'm just loving your recipes for things I haven't had since leaving the UK. In fact your stottie bread recipe brought back many fond memories of our Dad's Sunday morning ritual of making it after proofing it beside the coal fire hearth. Just wondering if you had a recipe my mother used to make called Panack (may have the spelling wrong). it was a potato slice covered casserole dish made with lamb (I believe) and black pudding etc. Any way love the videos and looking forward to trying some of your recipes. Cheers and good luck

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Hi John. My family came from Fulwell although during my primary school and early high school years up until 1964 we lived in Pennywell (before it became what I understand is now a pretty rough area). I did have a aunt and uncle that lived in Hendon and used to visit them often. I don't remember the name of the street they lived in but for what it's worth their surname was Crewe. Your panaculty doesn't sound like the dish me Mam used to make. I pretty sure I saw it once on an episode of the Hairy Bikers but I've never been able to find that episode again, but thanks anyway. I will give your recipe a try once you post it. Nonetheless, I only found your channel today and have spent much of the day watching several of your videos and I fully intend to give some of your recipes a try because I think we've all lost the pleasures and benefits of simple, wholesome, home cooked food So thanks again John to you and your wife for the fabulous job you're doing on your channel and website.
Thanks John. Yeah Pennywell was a bit rough but it's a highly sort after area now, lot of private builds going on the last few years. Fulwell, you musta gone to Redby school then, and very handy for Roker park football ground. There's lots of different recipes for Panac, as we call it, so it is probably the same dish, it's even on wikipedia.
I will try this as I love shepards pie. I used to work at a large poultry processing plant and the cafeteria that fed us all there made surprisingly good shepards pie. I live near a good old school butcher that always seems to have good deals on calf liver and lamb gigot chops from time to time. Here in Virgina I notice most people in my area are not used to cooking lamb so those gigot chops often go un-sold. The butcher eats them so he says. lol Could use a good liver and onion recipe as well as a recipe for those gigot chops. They look good to me but I have never eaten lamb.

Love the video of you two! It will be nice to have a website to go to for recipes! I love cottage pie, I make it at least twice a month and it freezes great if you leave the potatoes off till it’s thawed. I fold a couple of egg whites that I’ve whipped up into the potatoes.

A nice video and recipe spoiled by the addition of cheese (I hate cheese), no garlic and no gravy to soak into the mash.) but thats nothing a little water or stock cannot fix. The idea of serving it with Yorkshire puds is inspired though. Good job!
OK not dogging but in the US we don't know "maris piper potato". You give russet or yukon gold as equivalent. They are distinctly different. Russet is starchy & floury, yukon gold is a "wax potato" as are our "reds". As far as I can tell, maris piper is nearer to the russet which bakes & creams well and makes great chips (french fries). Yukon gold is more suited to soups and stews as it holds structure better. Love your videos. Getting ready to delve into the website. Thank you "kind sir".

I watched a chef who used chutney -- I tried it and now always use it.
Thanks again for watching Kate, much appreciated my friend. My wife prefers the lamb but I'm a beef man, so it's cottage pie for me.
Hello John, I love all your recipes and the way you cook is how I was taught by my domestic science teacher in the early 70's. I've continued to cook, and taught my mother who became an expert in cooking English dishes. You've brought back some wonderful memories with your recipes. Thank you.
You're welcome
I love how simple and straight-forward your explanations are. Bravo and thank you.
Thank you Owen, and thanks for watching my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channel's website, cream cheese profoodhomemade.com/cream-cheese/
I've been making shepherd's pie for 30 years + .... it's a British staple for sure ! ... but I tried this, as a result of previous successes with John's recipes ..... I really enjoyed it... the dried thyme, the finely chopped swede, cheese on top were new to me.....and surprisingly (To me) there was no need to add extra liquid... I thought it may be a bit dry.... nope...it wasn't... it was spot on ! .... gotta hand it to John Kirkwood, his recipes work.... PS. I made this from John's book, rather than keep referring to the video.
Thanks again Jools, yes the book comes in really handy for that purpose alone. 😉👍😃
I made your pie recipe. It was delicious. It has been a complete success. I had changed something, instead of mashed potatoes I used instant puree for lack of time. Thanks for your videos
Nice one my friend well done, pleased it was a success. 😃👍😉

That was my job growing up my Mom always had me mash the potatoes and she never would give me the butter until they were mashed enough then salt and white pepper that reminds me I have never seen anyone use white pepper other than you its what got my interest in your

All your time and effort, both culinary and technical, is greatly appreciated.
Very kind, and thanks again for watching Jeannette, it really is much appreciated, I find cooking a lot easier than this computer technical work, I'm stumbling my way through it, but getting there slowly. 👍😃😉

Thanks so much
Sadly, lamb is not readily available in my area of the US, but the beef version of this recipe is extraordinary. I faced a few challenges, though; the 'neeps' had to be attacked......yes attacked, with my electric knife. Thankfully, John's instructions were so precise it enabled me to have all components of this dish ready for the oven at the same time...whew! I now have a new Sunday dinner favorite. Thank you,
Thanks again for watching Jeannette, much appreciated, sorry you had a struggle with your turnip, they can be a bit difficult to peel and chop, you could use diced potatoes or parsnip if you find it a bit easier.
And thank you once again for you kindness and help😉👍 much appreciated.
I've made this meal a million times, I'm just here because I love watching your videos. Very relaxing and your food always looks delicious and non-fussy.
Glad you enjoy it!
Dear John and your lovely wife, very hard work on the website n other media . They are great. Finally I see you both. God bless you.

After another absolutely tasteless supermarket pie here I am. Thank You John! So grateful I found your channel.
Hope you enjoy
Great recipe. I am making this dish this weekend for the 3rd time. I like to use a good prime eye round steak and slow cook it then shred it, so Cottage Pie. We like Golden Yukon potatoes for mash and we keep the skins on, same with our carrots. Thanks John.

I am just about to make this comforting beauty John!!! I am making a cottage pie, unfortunately minced lamb isn’t something readily available, I guess I could mince my own but I am a bit on the lazy side just coming off many rounds of chemo for stage 4 metastatic breast cancer so I have to pace myself. Thank you for sharing with us John I really enjoy watching, listening and sometimes actually making!! Many thanks ❤️~Tina~❤️

Thanks again for watching Lisa, hope you enjoy the SP.😃👍😉
This is the first recipe I have come across that doesn’t use wine or stock! I’m giving this ago seems so much easier.
Last winter I used your steak pie recipe and it went down a treat. So I’m definitely going to use this but making the beef version so it will be cottage pie.
Wonderful. I've never made Shepherds pie with Lamb. I was raised in Alaska and was raised on Moose, so, I've made it with beef and moose. I'll have to give your recipe with lamb a try. Oh and congrats on your website!
Thanks again for watching Margaret, much appreciated my friend 😉.
My understanding is that Shepherds pie is made with lamb. Using another meat such as ground beef makes a Cottage pie.
@@eugenedanker2377 you are correct. If you use just vegetables or do lentils and vegetables then it’s shepherdess pie.
@@eugenedanker2377 Exactly. It's where the name comes from. You can also put some chopped leeks into the mash (my Nan used to do this, very nice. Oh and she used to use Rosemary instead of Thyme)
In Sweden we use king Edward potatoes. I’m guess you can use a “swede” as a veggie in there as well😊
I’m loving “swede” from a Swede I think originally the vegetable was a turnip and the new type was brought from Sweden so called a sw3de to distinguish it from a turnip this was in the mediaeval period I believe 😊
I made this for dinner last night, this is there a new favorite in the family. It's going to go on permanent rotation.

Just made this dish. Halved it, as just for me and my 2 kids. It was delicious! The only changes I made was to add a chopped garlic clove to the meat and veg and a little milk in the potatoes as mine were a little dry , but otherwise followed everything else and I couldn't be happier with the result. Definitely added this to my favorite recipes to make again and again! Thank you!

Thanks, John! I only found your channel last week, and as I haven’t got any corned beef to hand tried this excellent recipe. Minced lamb is hard to find here in Spain, but we have a friendly butcher, and I had some in the freezer. Thanks for a very tasty lunch!
Nice one Paul, thanks for watching much appreciated. Please like share and subscribe for more great video recipes.
This dish has been a lifelong favorite of mine for 50 yrs. It's always a hit !!!
Being from the states I've always had it with beef or venison and used peas instead of turnips. But will certainly be adding them next time; I love them. Great video
Thanks for watching my friend.
I just noticed your technique of using a paper towel on the cutting board for the trimmings. Just fold back the paper towel when you need to cut. Simple and brilliant! I will use this.
BTW, Russet potatoes are mealy while Yukon Gold are creamy. For a baked potato it's hard to beat a Russet but for french fries Yukon Gold are superior. Since they are quite a bit different from each other, I wonder how they compare with the potatoes you're using, whether more mealy or more creamy. Visually speaking, I'd say your potatoes are more mealy so Russet potatoes are the better substitute.
As a vegetarian I substitute a mix of veggie burger and veggie sausage and. some turmeric and black pepper too. YUM perfect winter fare.
You videos on meat pies are very helpful , as you take the time to walk through making a proper hot crust pastry dough , a winter warmer that I like to make is Scouse

Thanks Vanessa very kind, as always my friend 😉.
Thank You for using LAMB as is the CORRECT WAY! In the states many places use BEEF, I tell them that is Cottage Pie and often get " Well ..... that is how we make it here". Another great video.
Thanks again for watching Vincent, much appreciated.
I do a layer of beef with gravy, then a layer of veggies. The potatoes can be a bit tricky but if you made enough spuds, it works out great and you don’t have to make gravy later or when you freeze it. cheers

So good to find a channel where not everything is described as 'This bad boy' lol!

I made this again today great recipe- works every time thankyou x
Glad you liked it!!
my local regional commercial food supplier also serves home deliveries if you order in bulk quantities. One is advised to have available deep freezer space and pantry cupboard space. Fortunately I shop in larger quantities to save fuel costs and my travel time. This business also delivers weekly. My choice this order was 10 pounds of frozen ground lamb in one pound packages and 10 kilos of individually frozen chicken drumsticks. I'll be making plenty of Shepherds Pie in the near future.
I thought to cook a pie to our family and found that John also has a video for that. Thank you John. Also your baguettes that I make are better and better. Thank you.

OK just to let the people know, what Steve refers to as a Turnip is called Swede where I come from Turnips are those little white beetroot size root veg. But as always a pleasure to watch. I also like to add some frozen peas to the pie makes it a complete meal.
Thanks again for watching Pete, much appreciated, who's Steve? 😉
You mean John.
I think Swedes are called 'neeps' in Scotland. Also, remember hearing that they have a mild yet flavorful taste, and one needs a hacksaw to halve them. I'm going to scour the markets until I find one for this Shepard's Pie, and hope I do not cut myself in the process.
You are correct ..a Swede is totally different from a turnip ..thank goodness I'm not the only one who knows this...
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Lets just call that a senior moment ;)

Hi John, have you ever tried laying some cheese slices on top of the mince before you put the potato on? It is really nice. You still top the potato with grated cheddar for the added luscious topping. Just a tip from me to you 👍🏽
Thanks again for watching Jacqueline, much appreciated. No my friend I haven't tried that, but I will give it a go next time I make it for the family.
Looks lovely but id definitely use beef because we dont like lamb.
Thanks for another Great british Recipe John.
What a handsome couple you are, John. Our local grocery store periodically carries ground lamb now. I will have to try it. As we were driving back from my parents in Virginia yesterday, my daughter for the 1st time noticed all the flocks of sheep along Interstate 81. I told her lambing season is at hand and the family farm operations will have their hands full.
Thanks again Ron you're too kind mate. Aye it must be a real busy time for the farmers Ron.
Very, with breached births and all. Hopefully they will have a mild season weather wise.
Glad you made that point at the end, I have seen way too many restaurants put "Shepherd's Pie" on their menu but then it uses beef. One of my major pet peeves
I’m thinking your kitchen must smell like heaven right now.
It certainly does Gemma, thanks again for watching my friend.😉😃👍
Oh that shepherds pie looks absolutely delicious. Thanks very much for another winner recipe.
If I'm honest, I'll go for a couple of portions when I make this!

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Many thanks John, much appreciated.
John, it is a wintery mix here in the mountains of Upper East Tennessee. The mountains behind the house is covered in snow and wind is biting at the moment. What better to serve the family than a Sheppard's Pie. Since I have a freezer full of venison, I guess technically it is a Hunter's Pie? Yorkshire Pudding with and a brown gravy will top it off. My granddaughter wants a dessert so blackberry cobbler for her.
Sounds good Ron, never used Venison mince before, but I'll definitely try it. Blackberry cobbler for me too please Ron 👍😉😃
I'm using what is in the house, so we'll see how it shakes out.
Oh boy does that sound delicious Ron. I hope you loved your Hunter's Pie. This is one of my favourite things to eat. I make a big batch, using Beef which technically makes it a Cottage Pie but most people still call it Shepherd's, when it's done I can get 8-9 portions which I put in individual foil dishes and freeze, easy meals for cold & windy nights. Your comment is sending me out to the freezer for one of them lol. Doubt I could manage a dessert but hope yours hit the spot.
Love the website introduction. Keep up the good work

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade I finally got all the ingredients together, searched all over town for the lamb and managed to find the last two at a Whole Foods. Made the dish and it turned out FANTASTICALLY! The only minor issue I had was that it ended up very...juicy? Like, there was an entire two centimeters of standing juice when I scooped my portion out. I'm terrible at cooking so I have no idea why, but I figured I might have cooked it in the pot at too high a temperature initially. Any ideas as to why? (either way it tastes amazing when drizzled over top)
@@BowandSvent When you scooped the slice of pie out of the baking tray?? Odd. Sometimes there's a bit of fat but juice? I assume you followed the recipe right?

Hi John, as an old Sunderland lad of the 1950's and 60's (but an Aussie for the last 54 years) I'm just loving your recipes for things I haven't had since leaving the UK. In fact your stottie bread recipe brought back many fond memories of our Dad's Sunday morning ritual of making it after proofing it beside the coal fire hearth. Just wondering if you had a recipe my mother used to make called Panack (may have the spelling wrong). it was a potato slice covered casserole dish made with lamb (I believe) and black pudding etc.
Any way love the videos and looking forward to trying some of your recipes.
Cheers and good luck
Thanks for watching John, much appreciated. Very kind, thank you, pleased I'm bring back the old memories mate, I hale from Hendon Sunderland, is that where you were from? 😃😉👍.

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Hi John. My family came from Fulwell although during my primary school and early high school years up until 1964 we lived in Pennywell (before it became what I understand is now a pretty rough area). I did have a aunt and uncle that lived in Hendon and used to visit them often. I don't remember the name of the street they lived in but for what it's worth their surname was Crewe.
Your panaculty doesn't sound like the dish me Mam used to make. I pretty sure I saw it once on an episode of the Hairy Bikers but I've never been able to find that episode again, but thanks anyway. I will give your recipe a try once you post it.
Nonetheless, I only found your channel today and have spent much of the day watching several of your videos and I fully intend to give some of your recipes a try because I think we've all lost the pleasures and benefits of simple, wholesome, home cooked food
So thanks again John to you and your wife for the fabulous job you're doing on your channel and website.
Thanks John. Yeah Pennywell was a bit rough but it's a highly sort after area now, lot of private builds going on the last few years.
Fulwell, you musta gone to Redby school then, and very handy for Roker park football ground.
There's lots of different recipes for Panac, as we call it, so it is probably the same dish, it's even on wikipedia.
I will try this as I love shepards pie. I used to work at a large poultry processing plant and the cafeteria that fed us all there made surprisingly good shepards pie. I live near a good old school butcher that always seems to have good deals on calf liver and lamb gigot chops from time to time. Here in Virgina I notice most people in my area are not used to cooking lamb so those gigot chops often go un-sold. The butcher eats them so he says. lol Could use a good liver and onion recipe as well as a recipe for those gigot chops. They look good to me but I have never eaten lamb.
Enjoy.
Thousand likes for John and for John's channel ;)

Love the video of you two! It will be nice to have a website to go to for recipes! I love cottage pie, I make it at least twice a month and it freezes great if you leave the potatoes off till it’s thawed. I fold a couple of egg whites that I’ve whipped up into the potatoes. It makes them puff up and get even more crispy when they cook. Thanks for another great video. Cheers from the beautiful state of Oregon!

나는 당신이보기를 원한다면, 내 채널에 훨씬 더 빨라서 빵과 케이크, 치즈와 다른 요리법을 더 먹지 않는다. 공유하고 싶거나 구독하고 싶다면 (아직하지 않은 경우). 따라서 향후 비디오를 놓치지 않고 벨 아이콘을 누르십시오. 그러면 새 비디오를 업로드 할 때마다 자동으로 알려줍니다. 내 친구를보고 다시 한번 감사드립니다.
A nice video and recipe spoiled by the addition of cheese (I hate cheese), no garlic and no gravy to soak into the mash.) but thats nothing a little water or stock cannot fix. The idea of serving it with Yorkshire puds is inspired though. Good job!
Thanks for watching my friend.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Enjoying everyone I watch.
OK not dogging but in the US we don't know "maris piper potato". You give russet or yukon gold as equivalent. They are distinctly different. Russet is starchy & floury, yukon gold is a "wax potato" as are our "reds". As far as I can tell, maris piper is nearer to the russet which bakes & creams well and makes great chips (french fries). Yukon gold is more suited to soups and stews as it holds structure better. Love your videos. Getting ready to delve into the website. Thank you "kind sir".
Thanks for that Gerard, much appreciated.
Thanks John.Very professional looking.P.s you have great taste in music as well.Just loved that foot tapping blues track in the middle.👍
Thanks again for watching Sean, much appreciated, yeah it's all copyright free stuff you get on TH-cam, there's a link in the description box below the video, think it's called Rocking chair blues.
