Shepherds Pie
- Ready In:
- 45mins
- Ingredients:
- 15
ingredients
- 1 lb ground lamb
- 1 yellow onion, chopped finely
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon paprika (to taste)
- 1 pinch ground caraway
- 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- chili flakes (to taste)
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup milk
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons gorgonzola
- 1 lb green beans, steamed
directions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (232 C).
- Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet, add the onions and sautee until starting to get fragrant, add the ground lamb and break it up. Once it starts to smell nice and lamb-y, add the cumin, paprika, caraway, garlic, chili flakes and salt. Cook the meat and onions down until they're just cooked.
- Cut up the cauliflower head and steam it until its soft. Add the butter, eggs, garlic, gorgonzola and mash the cauliflower.
- Steam the green beans until they're just barely cooked - 5 mins in the microwave - and then chop them up into 1" strips (you could also use frozen peas for these, for a more traditional flavor).
- Smooth the meat flat in the skillet, top with the chopped green beans, then smooth the cauliflower mash over the top of it. Sprinkle a little paprika (if you like), and then pop into the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the top browns.
