Once cooked through, drain the potatoes. Season with salt & pepper. Mash them using a potato masher or a fork. Add the butter & milk & continue mashing until smooth. - Step 6
Butter an oven-proof dish (we used a 28 x 19 cm dish here). Add the minced beef & spread the potato mash on top in an even layer. Top with grated cheese & bake for 20 min at 350°F. - Step 7
Once the shepherd's pie is nice & golden on top, remove the dish from the oven. Serve the shepherd's pie on a plate with a side of green salad. Enjoy!
