I cook my veg with it, then let it cool…….my mash potato is made up of spuds, butter, a drop of milk, salt & pepper, (finely chopped celery and/or spring onions), optional….
Then spoon it on top and fluff it up with a fork……
Yummy……..Martin…..

I’m making Shepherd’s Pie today. The recipe I have adds carrot and celery. I don’t have any porcini mushrooms but I will add some English mustard powder as your recipe does. Thanks for the inspiration.

In reply to headsy12. Trust me to find the only 2 books to misname it LOL and then adapt the recipes! It's a poor excuse I know but a genuine one:-)

I’m a big fan of shepherd’s pie and this flavour combo sounds superb! I get that sinking potato thing happen on occasion too, especially with fish pie. I’ve learned that reducing the milk quantity in the mash helps keep the potatoes on top! Thanks for sharing your lovely recipe with the No Waste Food Challenge!

I love this but only make it for my daughter as my husband doesn’t like mince or mashed potatoes. I like the idea of putting the dried porcini mushrooms in as they have so much flavour.

You can’t beat a Shepherds pie! A cottage pie… Any pie for that matter!! 🙂 Lovely Jubbly!

In reply to K Mayers. You really can't taste the mustard specifically it just adds to the seasoning - the porcini really added a deep rich flavour to the mince though:-)

By: K Mayers

K Mayers — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:46:05 +0000

Never eaten Shepherd’s Pie with mushrooms in – porcini at that! I do love mushrooms too – eat them raw 🙂
I must admit I’ve never thought to put mustard in the recipe either – though perhaps that’s because I have a real fussy bunch of kids.

In reply to DANIELLE VEDMORE. I hadn't either Danielle but they have a really intense flavour and make a really good store cupboard item:-)
