Low Carb Cottage Pie

For weeknight dinners I try to be as carb-conscience and health conscience as possible. In a perfect world, I would be happy to eat lean meat with green veg for supper, but it's winter and I need a bit more oomph in my diet, so this is as healthy as I could go.

For weeknight dinners I try to be as carb-conscience and health conscience as possible. In a perfect world, I would be happy to eat lean meat with green veg for supper, but it's winter and I need a bit more oomph in my diet, so this is as healthy as I could go.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat the oven to 190C.
- 2
Place the butternut with the 2 T of coconut oil, nutmeg and salt and pepper in a big roasting dish. Mix and roast for 30 minutes or until soft.
- 3
In a big pan brown the onion and garlic in the 2 T coconut oil.
- 4
Add the carrots and celery and saute until soft.
- 5
Add the mince, breaking it up as it browns.
- 6
Add the tomato paste, red wine, stock, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, bay leaves and salt and pepper and mix.
- 7
Add the cornstarch slurry.
- 8
Bring to a boil and then simmer on medium heat until the liquid has become a thick gravy. About 40 minutes.
- 9
When the butternut is soft, transfer to a bowl and add the yoghurt. Blitz with a hand-held blender until it is mashed.
- 10
When the mince is ready (the gravy should be thick and not at all runny), transfer it to the dish wherein the butternut was cooked.
- 11
Add the butternut mash to the dish, creating a second layer.
- 12
Put the dish back in the oven for 30 minutes.
- 13
Serve with chopped Italian parsley and chillies.

Cottage Pie Cottage Pie
It’s like Shepherds Pie (which is made with ground lamb) but made with ground beef. Enough here for 2 casseroles - one for tonight and one to freeze for a later date. There are some cheats - I use Costco mashed potatoes (doctored up) for the topping but feel free to use fresh mashed potatoes. I grew up eating this in England and this is the closest thing to my moms recipe as I have been able to get. Jenny Saviano -
Traditional Cottage Pie Traditional Cottage Pie
You can mix up the mash by adding parsnips, sweet potatoes or cauliflower. You can also use beef stock instead of red wine, I Iike that extra zinge so I prefer to use red wine instead to simmer the mince in.Some of the ingredients are approximate, I don't really use measures in this recipe as you can add a few things and it'll still taste great. You can add celery and peas to the meat as well.You can also reduce the heat and simmer it on low for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the meat has become really soft. Rae -

Cottage Pie Cottage Pie
I always called this shepherd’s pie but technically it’s not shepherd’s pie because there’s no lamb in it. This is my version of cottage pie with ground beef, sausage, and vegetables. I serve it in individual ramekins that are deep, topped with my homemade mashed potatoes but it can be put into one dish and then served in individual portions. fenway -
Beef Pot Pie à la Shepherd’s Pie Beef Pot Pie à la Shepherd’s Pie
A frigid day in New York made me concoct this dish inspired by England’s Shepherd’s Pie. I made it with ground beef, not lamb. I used bags of frozen mixed vegetables and peas that a guest had left in my freezer. And I mashed together potatoes and a yam that I had to use before it went bad. In other words, it’s a very flexible dish that can be easily adapted to what is in the kitchen. This pot pie hit the spot. I’ll definitely be making it again.#beef #pie #pot #shepherd #comfort #meal #dinner #winter #potatoes #Worcestershire #peas #England #English Ricardo -

A favourite from back home in Wales. If you don't like leeks, you could replace them with onions or try my broccoli in cheese sauce as the middle layer Arty Greig -

A Proper Cottage Pie A Proper Cottage Pie
Cottage pie is made from beef, whereas real, Shepherd's pie, is made using lamb. Some people can use gravy granules, to make the gravy part. I can't because it contains MSG which I am allergic to. Also if you would like to add a cup of English peas to the filling feel free to do so. Oh you don't neccesarily have to use cheese. skunkmonkey101
