Sometimes it is not easy to decide what to prepare for Saturday lunch when you are lazy and your children are hungry. 馃槉 It must be a dish that contains vegetables to be healthy and to have a simple preparation because you want to rest during your non-working day.
My kids love peas, which inspired me to make shepherd's pie. My shepherd's pie is a little different from the original recipe because I make each dish simpler and easier to prepare.
For this great dish, you need 1 kg of potatoes.
Peel it, wash it, cut it, and put it to cook.
In addition to potatoes, you need 400g of peas. I had frozen peas.
Two carrots, 1 pepper, and onion.
Chop the carrot.
Mix the peas and carrots.
And put it to cook.
While the vegetables are cooking, prepare 400g of ground beef.
Spice it up. I put pepper, curry, dry parsley, and tarragon.
Chop the pepper and onion.
Place in a little oil to fry very briefly.
Add the meat and fry until the water evaporates.
Now add the meat to the peas and carrots.
I like colorful dishes. Colors increase my appetite. 馃槉
Stir the meat and vegetables.
You will also need parsley and garlic.
Chop one clove of garlic.
During this time, the potatoes are cooked. Add 30g of butter, 200 ml of milk, one egg yolk, and chopped garlic.
Mash everything to make a puree.
Chop the parsley.
Grease the baking dish with a little oil or butter and place the vegetables and meat on the bottom.
Sprinkle with parsley.
Place the potato mixture on top.
Sprinkle the dish with parmesan cheese and bake for about half an hour at 200 degrees.
I cooked carrots for my baby, so I used them to decorate the plate because, as I mentioned, I like colorful dishes. 馃槉
With shepherd's pie, we usually like to eat tomato salad, but you can eat any salad you like and it will certainly go great with this dish.
Thank you very much for reading. I wish you a nice weekend, filled with love, happy moments, and of course good food. 馃槉
