- Add 1 cup wine and saute on med low heat 10-15 minute.
- Meanwhile drain the potatoes, mash (by hand - it tastes better) and add butter and milk to soften.

This dish was fairly easy to make, and had a pleasant enough taste, but I can't say I was overwhelmed. I just didn't find the flavours very prominent. I had to substitute dried thyme (I'd recommend 1-1 1/2 tsp), but otherwise the recipe was left unaltered. I found the recipe itself quite vague, not indicating how the ingredients were to be prepped, etc. The recipe worked out in the end, but some people may find it confusing. I do have to say, however, that my 2 year old daughters quite enjoyed it. They tended to favour the vegetables above the potatoes or steak. I might try this recipe again, but I will probably try someone else's Shepherd's Pie recipe instead.
