skinnymixer's Rustic Shepherd's Pie

Shepherd’s Pie is a true winter classic… A great way to create a budget friendly, veggie filled meal in the Thermomix that is both delicious and comforting.

I opted to use low carb potatoes in mine, but you could easily substitute them with sweet potato or alternatively this popular mashed cauliflower recipe. To make this a complete meal, you can steam vegetables from step 5 if you wish, and you can also opt to make it dairy free or top with grated cheese too! Enjoy.

  1. Is it safe to steam the mince and potatoes for 20 minutes with only oil & Worcestershire sauce in the mixer bowl? I always thought you needed water in the bowl when using the varoma?

    1. Add stock, tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, paprika and pepper to mixer bowl.
      Insert simmering basket and put the mince inside the simmering basket.

    Made this tonight and amazing! Best shepherds pie I have ever made. I was a bit naughty and put some grated cheese on top of the mashed potato to try and tempt this kids and 2/3 tried it so success 😂 thanks for a great recipe will become a staple in our house.

    So, so, so good!! I was craving comfort food in the middle of the Melbourne winter and this absolutely fitted the bill. I doubled the lamb mince but cooked that on the stovetop, and doubled everything in the sauce except the water (I used 1.5 times the recipe). I threw in a mix of frozen peas, corn and capsicum and the result was the hearty, delicious warm hug I was hoping for. Best of all, we have leftovers for tomorrow. Winning! Thanks for yet another first rate recipe Nik!

    This is a great family friendly recipe, it was enough for two adults and two kids, which I served in individual ramekins. I added bacon to the mash, that went down really well! I expected my kids to turn up their noses as they don’t normally like all-in-one meals, but both readily ate this quickly! Great flavour, quick and easy.
