Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking dish.
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
-
In the same skillet, add a little oil if needed and sauté the diced onions and carrots until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
-
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.
-
Add the peas, beef or vegetable broth, tomato paste, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
While the filling simmers, prepare the sweet potato topping. Place the sweet potato cubes in a pot of boiling water and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer them to a bowl.
-
Mash the sweet potatoes with ghee or coconut oil until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Pour the beef and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
-
Carefully spoon the sweet potato mash over the filling, using a spatula to spread it out into an even layer.
-
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potato topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
-
Once done, remove the Shepherd's Pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this comforting and satisfying dish with your loved ones!
