Someone gave me a lamb and some potatoes, and I had all manner of loose vegetables in the fridge ready for cooking, so I made lamb shepherd’s pie. I looked up a Jamie Oliver recipe with lamb and rosemary in the title for inspiration and then just free-rolled from there.

Two evolutions later, I had made a couple of stops for more ingredients and come up with a stellar dish that fed my sense of fall seclusion and comfort, and that made good use of many of the current inhabitants of my pantry. Is there any better feeling than nailing a dish of comfort food when you’re just drinking wine and riffing in the kitchen? If you want to give this comfort food a go, here’s what I did:

Ingredients
 
 

  •  
    4 rashers smoked bacon
  • Ripe Yellow Onion On A White Background1 medium yellow onion - chopped
  • Garlic4 cloves garlic - minced
  •  
    6 medium brussels sprouts - sliced
  • Tasty Minced Meat Isolated On White Background3 pounds ground lamb (minced lamb)
  • Potatoes2 pounds potatoes - peeled
  • Rosemary2 sprigs rosemary
  • Aromatic Bay Leaves1 piece bay leaf (bay leaves)
  • Pile Of Flour Isolated On White Background1-2 tablespoon all purpose flour (plain flour Australia and UK)
  • Red Wine¼ cup red wine
  • Bowl Of Beef Bone Stock¼ cup beef stock (beef broth or beef bouillon)
  • Ground Black Pepper Pile, Paths, Top1 teaspoon ground black pepper - to taste
  • Worcestershire Sauce2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce - adjust for taste
  • Wooden Bowl Of Salt1 teaspoon salt - adjust for taste
  • Ketchup3 tablespoons ketchup (tomato sauce Australia and UK) - adjust for taste
  • Peas¼ cup peas
  • Carrot Vegetable With Leaves¼ cup carrots - diced
  • Cauliflower¼ cup cauliflower - diced
  • Tomatoes¼ cup tomato - chopped

Instructions
 

  • Add the bacon into the skillet and saute with onion and garlic.
  • Add the brussels sprouts, turning around on the heat for a moment or two.
  • Add the ground lamb and stir until brown.
  • While the lamb browned, boil the peeled potatoes in salted water. (Note: at some point during this process, you’re going to want to throw in a couple of sprigs of rosemary and a bay leaf or two as well.)
  • In the meantime, it’s a good idea to drain most, if not all, of the fat off the meat (lamb can be pretty fatty).
  • Next, sprinkle a tablespoon or two of all-purpose flour on the lamb and mix in 1/4 cup or so of red wine.
  • Add a splash of beef or chicken broth to help create a bit of gravy.
  • Add some pepper, Worcestershire sauce and salt to taste. Add three tablespoons of ketchup (or to taste) and about a third of a bag of Trader Joe’s Melange of Vegetables. Finish off with a selection of large pieces of chopped heirloom tomatoes.
  • Once the potatoes had cooked, drain them and mash them, adding butter, milk, salt and pepper.
  • Finally, put the lamb filling into a baking dish and gently spread the mashed potatoes on top. Bake at 375 degrees until the potato topping has turned golden brown.
