HelloFresh Shepherds Pie Recipe

HelloFresh Shepherd's Pie Recipe

I've always found that the HelloFresh Shepherd's Pie recipe brings a certain heartiness to the table that's hard to match.
Making sure the potato topping is light and fluffy is my secret to a pie that's both comforting and gourmet.
I layer the meat and veggies with care, knowing that each stratum contributes to the final, savory experience.

Equipment
  • 1 broiler
  • 1 pot
  • 1 potato masher
  • 1 Large pan
Ingredients
  
  • 10 ounce Yukon Gold potatoes cut into ½-inch pieces
  • Olive oil
  • 1 large carrot diced
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • 8 ounce button mushrooms quartered
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 unit chicken stock concentrate
  • ¼ ounce fresh thyme thinly sliced
  • ½ cup white cheddar cheese grated
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • Salted water for boiling potatoes
Instructions
 
  • Place the ½-inch potato pieces into a pot, cover them with salted water, and bring it to a boil.
    Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
    Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot.
  • Add sour cream and a pinch of salt to the drained potatoes.
    Use a potato masher to mash until smooth.
    Set aside.
    In a large pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
    Add the diced carrot and chopped onion to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are softened.
  • Stir in the quartered mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes.
    Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking the meat into pieces as it cooks.
    Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through.
    Add 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes.
    Stir in the chicken stock concentrate and sliced thyme.
    Cook until the mixture thickens and forms a sauce.
    Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat the broiler to high.
    Transfer the meat and vegetable mixture into an oven-safe dish, spreading it out evenly.
    Top this layer with the mashed potatoes, spreading it smoothly across the meat filling.
    Sprinkle the grated ½ cup white cheddar cheese over the potatoes.
    Place the dish under the broiler and broil until the cheese is melted and golden.
    Keep an eye on the pie to avoid burning.
  • Carefully remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
    Enjoy your delicious Hellofresh Shepherd's Pie with juicy vegetables, a rich meat filling, and cheesy mashed potatoes!
