Cottage Pie 1
Ingrediënten
500 g gehakt
2 el bloem
1 a 2 uien
1 winterwortel
150 g doperwten
1 el tomaten ketchup
1 el worcestershire sauce
2 el peterselie
200 ml runder bouillon
zout en peper
aardappelen
melk
Bereiding
Pel en snijd de uien samen met de wortels fijn. Bak de ui glazig en voeg het gehakt toe. Bak het gehakt rul, als het bruin is, voeg dan de bloem toe. Voeg vervolgens de ketchup, worcestershire saus, wortel, erwten, mais, en peterselie toe. Roer het geheel goed door elkaar en voeg rustig de bouillon toe. Breng het mengsel aan de kook en laat het 10 tot 15 minuten sudderen. Voeg naar smaak zout en peper toe.
Schil de aardappelen en kook ze in 10 tot 15 minuten bijna gaar. Voeg dan melk of boter toe en eventueel wat zout en stamp ze tot een puree.
Verwarm de oven voor op 190C. Doe het gehaktmengsel in een ovenschaal en spreid de puree eroverheen, zodat alles goed bedekt is. Plaats de schaal circa 30 minuten in de oven tot alles heet en de aardappel puree mooi bruin is.

Bereiding
Make the Meat Filling.
- Add the oil to a large skillet and place it over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the onions. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the ground beef (or ground lamb) to the skillet and break it apart with a wooden spoon. Add the parsley, rosemary, thyme, salt, and and pepper. Stir well. Cook for 6-8 minutes, until the meat is browned, stirring occasionally.3. Add the Worcestershire sauce and garlic. Stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add the flour and tomato paste. Stir until well incorporated and no clumps of tomato paste remain.
- Add the broth, frozen peas and carrots, and frozen corn. Bring the liquid to a boil then reduce to simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Set the meat mixture aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Make the potato topping.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with water. Bring the water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cook until potatoes are fork tender, 10-15 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes in a colander. Return the potatoes to the hot pot. Let the potatoes rest in the hot pot for 1 minute to evaporate any remaining liquid.
- Add butter, half & half, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mash the potatoes and stir until all the ingredients are mixed together.
- Add the parmesan cheese to the potatoes. Stir until well combined.
Assemble the casserole.
- Pour the meat mixture into a 9x9 (or 7x11) inch baking dish. Spread it out into an even layer. Spoon the mashed potatoes on top of the meat. Carefully spread into an even layer.
- If the baking dish looks very full, place it on a rimmed baking sheet so that the filling doesn’t bubble over into your oven. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
If you can’t find frozen mixed peas and carrots, you could use 0.5 cup frozen peas and 0.5 cup frozen sliced carrots.
