* Shepherd's Pie has always been a staple of traditional
Irish cooking. The British use lamb in their Shepherd's
Pie, but beef is quite popular and ground turkey can be
used if preferred. This recipe can also be made in
individual pie dishes, which are always a hit. Drop by
Humphrey's Market to pick up all of your ingredients.

Add 2 Tbsp oil to a medium-size pot, on medium heat,
saute the onions until golden.

Raise the heat to medium-high, add meat, continuously
stir while sauteing, until it begins to brown.

When meat is cooked through, add 1 1/4 cups of hot water,
bay leaf and garlic, put lid on and bring to a simmer and
put the heat on low. Simmer for 30 minutes or until the
liquid reduces to 1/2 cup.

Meanwhile, peel and cube potatoes in 3cm/1" sq, boil in
water, until tender. Drain, add salt and pepper to taste,
add butter and mash.

Beat the egg yolk with milk. Add to the mashed potatoes
and stir. Add sliced scallions and stir. Set aside.

To the simmered meat, add tomato paste, Worcestershire
sauce, salt, pepper, thyme, and frozen vegetables. Mix
well and simmer for 5 more minutes. Empty into an
oven-safe deep dish and remove bay leaf.

Place rack on middle shelf of the oven, set thermostat
to 205oC/400oF.

Spread mashed potatoes over top of the meat mixture.
Rough up with a fork so that there are peaks -or- use the
fork to make some designs so the top will brown nicely.

Bake for 30-45 minutes, until golden brown on the top.

Makes 4 servings
