Today I'm offering you another retro recipe that takes you back in time: shepherd's pie. I think there are as many versions of shepherd's pie as there are cooks. My recipe is a family one, and it's made with ground beef. While beef tends to dry out, adding tomato and carrots, then deglazing with white wine, makes it incredibly tender. Also, the mashed potatoes are essential; you need to use good-quality potatoes and top them with a generous knob of butter, then loosen them with hot milk. Another tasty tip: I add cheese for the gratin, but I also add breadcrumbs for a crispy texture. There are quite a few steps in making shepherd's pie, but you can cook both the mashed potatoes and the meat at the same time. This saves a lot of time, and the ingredients will still be piping hot when you put the gratin in the oven. Then, let the joy take over... you'll see young and old alike shower you with praise and devour your shepherd's pie. With a green salad, you could say you've reached ecstasy! In short, you know I'm a fervent defender of tradition, and I don't want these family dishes to disappear in favor of minimalist cuisine that makes us eat primarily with our eyes. I invite you to try this trip down memory lane by trying this shepherd's pie recipe. So, are you convinced? If so, quickly grab your aprons!
