  • Guinness Shepherd's Pie
    A hearty and comforting dish featuring tender chunks (not mince) of lamb simmered in a rich Guinness stout gravy, combined with carrots, peas, and onions. Topped with creamy mashed potatoes and baked to golden perfection, this savoury pie offers a delicious blend of flavours and textures, perfect for a cozy meal.
    Shepherd's Pie originated in the United Kingdom and Ireland in the late 18th century. It was initially a way to use leftover roasted meat of any kind and was a practical dish for utilizing leftovers. Traditionally, "shepherd's pie" is used when the dish is made with lamb, while "cottage pie" refers to a version made with beef.
    The dish became popular among rural workers and their families because it was affordable, filling, and easy to prepare. Mashed potatoes as a topping became a staple because potatoes were a readily available crop. Over time, Shepherd's Pie has evolved, with many variations and adaptations around the world, but it remains a beloved comfort food known for its simplicity and heartiness.

I have put beer in my crockpot roast, but it was Mexican beer Corona! So what I love most about this dish is the mash potato bake on top.

      @deirdrelewis1454 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Guinness is available in South Africa…if you can find it and afford the price! Local stout is pretty good. There may be a butcher somewhere who would be willing to mince lamb but again, at an extortionate price. Lamb is by far the most expensive meat here.

  • @Curlyblonde
    @Curlyblonde 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    It doesn't matter whether the lamb is minced or cubed. It ends up in your stomach in the same way, chewed to bits.
    For some of us who have difficulty in finding and purchasing lamb depending where we live, you take it anyway you can find it. A day after you cook it, it will matter to no one whether the meat is minced or cubed. Far more important issues in life to deal with.
    Once I used goat meat as a substitute and no one except the rascal cook (me) was any wiser. The guests practically licked their plates, there was nothing left over. These were people who had never eaten lamb or goat before. They thought they were eating beef and I didn't burst their bubble about it either. That was my first time eating young goat meat as well, and I liked it.
    For the viewers who dislike the taste of lamb meat, the addition of a medium-sized cubed turnip to the stew mixture, in addition to the generous addition of Guinness "tames" the taste. You wouldn't know that it is lamb, as it would taste more like beef.
    Lovely meal.

      Since it got into the Guinness, it will moderate "the taste" that put you off. Adding a bit of diced turnip to the stew mix also helps and adds a nice flavor.

      ​@annettefournier9655 I cooked it once. Tender lamb chops. Somehow, never having made them, with no recipe, I seasoned and oven cooked them wonderfully. I may have broiled them. That was at least 40 years ago. I still remember, though, how utterly delicious they were.
      I think I tried it again in a restaurant. It wasn't good at all, if I remember right. I never tried it again, except in gyro meat, which I enjoy.

    I love your channel (and yes, I'm a subscriber 👍). I'm a Lancashire lass but I now live in the SE USA.
    Lamb is my favourite but hard to come by here, yet I see "Shepherds' Pie" everywhere. Made with beef! 🙄😳
    I try to explain to my friends that if it's beef, it should be cottage pie and that Shepherds pie is exclusively lamb.
    You know. Shepherds. Sheep. Lamb 🐑
    They all realize that it makes sense and then shrug it off. Drives me nuts.
    Anyway, looks delicious. Might have to give that a try too ❤️❤️

    Hi Rik. I am inspired by your recipes. Growing up in Southern California, when the family had very little money, my mother made a lot of cottage pie. Lamb was too expensive. Also salt cod with mash. Back then in the 50s salt cod was cheap, and frowned upon by the middle and 'upper class' people. We also ate a lot of Mexican food. Proper Mexican, not Taco Bell. It was also cheaper, plentiful and very healthy. I first had shepherd's pie when we migrated to Australia. Young mutton, called hogget, was plentiful and cheap. I still love both shepherd's pie and cottage pie on the cold winter nights. Yes, parts of Australia do get cold in winter. Not everywhere is blistering hot.

    Never thought of using cubes instead of ground meat for Cottage pie! Would have to make it with beef (lamb not available in my area), then couldn't use Guinness cause hubby hates it (plus too expensive here). Guess I could replace that with mushroom stock. But then in the end I wouldn't be making this recipe at all. lol (but bet it would still be tasty).
    I love that casserole dish, but I can't find anything like that online! Is that a 9x13 or a 7x11? That size makes it so much easier to dish up than my oval French White casserole which is much deeper. Shirley in NH

    As I understand to be Shepherds pie it is definitely lamb. I don’t think texture matters but I could be wrong. All other is cottage pie as you said. One of my favorites. We can’t get lamb here in Kentucky or if it is available you have to sell your first born to get it. Lol.

    I do have a laugh at how traditional English dishes are usually beige and on the unhealthy side. The stereotype. A high carb beige ingredient wrapped in another beige ingredient, full of fat and meat with occasionally some cheese in or on it.
    Great food. Great comfort food! But I can see why the Brits do not live as long as those in the Mediterranean areas.
    Everything in moderation and all is fine.
    Will be making this stew and loving it this week!

    Rik, have you been reading my autobiography, because this is another dish similar to so many meals from my youth/ early twenties that marked outstanding events. This time recent is an annual weekend away staying in an old stone built bunkhouse in the Lake District. We always booked the same weekend and the catering was always the same meals, Friday was a pot of Guinness stew that had been precooked at home with jacket potatoes, Saturday was a large pork pie (also known as a Stand Pie) with homemade mushy peas and some roasted potatoes and mint sauce. The rest of the catering was full English breakfasts and cold cuts and a couple of loaves with a side salad. The rest of our weekend was filled out with a couple of walks and visits to the pub.!

    I know shepherds pie is traditionally lamb mince, but I frankly don't like lamb mince. Cubed lamb pieces, for me are the way to go. It's still made with lamb so therefore it's still shepherds pie in my opinion.

    • @BackyardChef
      @BackyardChef  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Agreed 100% Its better by far with the cubes - in fact it all started with cubes - no idea why it change to mince and the inevitable oil slick in the pie. I would say this way is healthier. Thank you. Best, Rik

    The name, _Shepherd's Pie,_ suggests a working shepherd's preparation of a one-pot meal under crude conditions. Mashed potatoes are easy, but mincing meat is another matter. I'd say cubed meat better suits the name of the dish.
