  1. This was a tasty and unique dish, but I made a few adjustments. I used ground lamb, but found the onion and meat mixture needed to be drained before mixing in the potatoes, etc. Even so, the mixture seemed rather loose, so I ended up adding about 2-1/2 cups of mashed potatoes to thicken it up. I also added a teaspoon of harissa for a little pop. I baked it in an 11x7-inch pan for 45 minutes, which worked out very well. Made for ZWT9 by a Tasty Tester.
     
  2. We loved this - very easy to do - I added fresh thyme as I had no parsley and it was a terrific success-made for ZWT3 and will be made again - also a good way to use up left over mashed potato - in fact any veg mash could be substituted eg swede, pumpkin,sweet potato so thanks to Annacia
     
  3. I tagged this because we like Shepherds pie. Although most people I know make it bland so a NA version is nice. I added some Harissa and Allspice to the meat mix and then layered potatoes meat then potatoes. I skipped the wet egg just because we are going to be eating many eggs this month. Thank You Made for Ramadan Tag 2011.
     
  4. I made this using ground turkey instead of lamb. I also added in a cup of shredded cheese before baking. The kids ate it without complaint so it must have been good. Made for NA*ME Tag
