Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Layer the Filling: In a baking dish, spread the meat filling evenly at the bottom.
Top with Mashed Potatoes: Scoop the mashed potatoes over the meat filling, smoothing the top with a spatula. To give it a decorative touch, use a fork to create peaks on the surface.
Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Step 4: Serve and Garnish
Garnish: Once out of the oven, let the Shepherd’s Pie cool slightly. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a pop of color.
Serving Suggestion: Serve hot, alongside a fresh green salad or some traditional Irish soda bread for a complete meal.
Enjoy!
