Ingredients

How to make it

  • Turn on broiler
  • heat oil in a 12 inch pan ( I used a 10 inch CI)
  • coarsely chop onion and add to skillet
  • add beef (its okay if its still a little frozen)
  • raise heat to high. Cook, turning and breaking meat until it is crumbled and brown. While the meat is browning, stir in Worcestershire sauce, ketchup and garlic
  • cook potatoes according to directions
  • when meat is browned add in peas,reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer
  • meanwhile, combine boullion cube and water in a microwave safe cup. Microwave 1 minute to disolve the cube. Stir the cornstarch in briskly until it is well blended.
  • Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet and stir well.
  • Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile finish microwaving the potatoes add in butter
  • stir in the sour cream into the beef mixture
  • spoon potatoes over the beef mixture and spread them to within 1 inch of the skillet sides.
  • sprinkle cheese over the top and broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 2 minutes

    Looks yummy Laurie. I actually don't think I've ever made a Shepherd's Pie if you can believe it! Guess it's time to give it a whirl!

    I like Sheperd's Pie and this looks a good one. I can never figure out if LOL means laugh out loud, lots of luck or leave off living. Dangerisher & dangerisher! "Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” -BUDDHA RJ

    I messed up when I made this and added the sour cream to the potatoes instead of the beef. Still delish, & no one noticed.
