Shepherd's Pie


Description:
My kids love mashed potato! Who doesn't? :-) So I thought of doing this dish complete with vegetables to entice them to eat their carrots and peas. It was a huge hit! Raya actually asked if she can have it for
lunch in school the next day. :-)

Ingredients:
1/2 kilo potatoes
butter
milk
salt
1/2 kilo ground beef or pork
garlic and onions for sauteing
salt and pepper
thyme
basil
1/2 pack of frozen vegetables (carrots, corn and peas)

Directions:
1. Peel potatoes and boil in water with salt.

2. While potatoes are boiling, saute onions and garlic in oil in a pan. Put ground meat and stir around until it browns and crumbles. Season with salt and pepper, thyme and basil. Add the frozen vegetables and cook for 5 minutes stirring constantly. Set aside.

3. When potatoes are cooked, mash them and add butter, salt and milk until creamy.

4. Put cooked meat and vegetables in a baking dish. Layer with mashed potato. Bake for about 20 minutes until potatoes are slightly browned on top. :-)
