Ingredients
- 1 lb ground lamb
- 1 onion
- 12 oz beef stock
- 3 lbs potatoes about 10 medium
- 7 oz carrots about 4 medium
- 3 oz celery
- 4 fl oz cream
- 4 oz Irish butter
- ½ bottle Guinness 5-6 fl oz
Instructions
- Put the ground lamb into a pot and brown well over a medium / high heat. Stir well to break it up and to prevent it from sticking. No need to for oil.
- While the lamb is browning, peel and chop the onions.
- Peel and chop the carrots. Wash and chop the celery.
- When the meat has browned and even a little crispy (roasted) looking, add the onions, carrots and celery, mix well.
- After 5 minutes, pour in the beef stock and stir well.
- After 5 minutes, add at least half a bottle of Guinness. If you like Guinness add all of it. Cook over a medium heat until most of the liquid has evaporated and the lamb and vegetable are in a thicker sauce. This can take about 1 hour.
- While then lamb is cooking and reducing for an hour, peel and chop the potatoes into chunks.
- Place the potato pieces into salted (1 tsp salt) cold water, bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the potatoes are soft when pierced with a thin knife.
- Drain the potatoes when cooked. Return the potatoes to the heat and allow any residual water to evaporate. Pour in melted butter and cream, and using a hand held mixer, blend the potatoes and cream together.
- Put the cooked lamb in an ovenproof dish. Put the mashed potatoes into a piping bag with your nozzle of choice and pipe swirls of potatoes on top of the lamb.
- When the entire dish is covered with potatoes and none of the lamb layer is showing, place the Shepherd's Pie in a pre heated 350 degrees F, oven for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown.
- Once the potatoes are golden brown, remove from the oven. Top with freshly chopped parsley (optional.) It's ready to serve.
