Shepherd's pie Recipe | Good Food

My mother's shepherd's pie was made just as in the recipe today, but using leftover roast meat meant it didn't need to cook for as long. The meat was flavoured with tomato sauce and Worcestershire sauce, then topped with creamy mashed potato and baked in the wood-stove. I have happy memories of our shepherd's pie and have made it often for my family with fresh lamb. You can also use minced beef and then it would be a cottage pie.
