Duck's Favorite Shepard's Pie Recipe


Shepard's Pie

Ingredients:

  • potatoes ~ diced up into smaller chunks for mashing (enough for your family)
    • you can leave the skins on or peel them
  • onion ~ enough for taste
  • green onion ~ used one stalk
  • dash ~  salt
  • dash ~ pepper
  • 1 lb ~ ground turkey
  • bag ~ frozen corn
  • optional ~ beef gravy
Directions:

Mashed Potatoes: Boil potatoes until soft. Drain potatoes and add about 2 tbsp butter and enough milk to make the potatoes stick. Add salt and mix well.


Meat: In a frying pan saute' the onions and green onions. Then add ground turkey and cook until done. (I use a cast iron frying pan, but if you don't;  add meat to a casserole dish).  Add the frozen corn layer and top with the mashed potatoes.  I bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 30 mins. Your potatoes should have a hint of golden brown to the crust. Serve hot with brown gravy on top (my husbands favorite way).

Gravy:  In a sauce pan boil water with 3 to 4 beef bullion cubes, add flour with water mixture to the boiling water until it gets thick. Stir constantly and when thick turn down heat to a simmer. Season with salt to taste.
