Try my traditional (gluten free) cottage pie recipe, made with help from my Irish ancestors. Sensational, oh so savory, & made with a lot of love!

Ingredients
4 Yukon gold potatoes (or Russet)
2-3 chopped carrots
3 tbsp Kerrygold Garlic Herb Butter - of course, you're welcome to use whatever butter you like!
(1) 15 oz. can organic peas (or chopped stems of broccolini bunch) - my husband loathes peas, so I've made it with broccolini stems instead & he did like it better!
1/2 sweet onion
2 tsp tomato paste
32 oz. organic beef broth
2 tbsp chickpea flour
1 lb. organic ground beef
Celtic sea salt
thyme - optional: rosemary
5 tbsp Kerrygold Garlic Herb Butter
5+ cloves minced garlic

The Process
start by boiling your Yukon gold potatoes for about 35 minutes
while the potatoes are boiling, sauté your mixture of carrots, onion, & peas with 3 tbsp of butter on medium heat for about 3-5 minutes
next, turn heat to low & let veggies simmer for 10-15 minutes
once veggies are soft, stir in 2 tsp tomato paste & cook for 1 minute
add 1.5 cups organic beef broth to your veggie mixture - turn heat up to medium & let simmer for 5 minutes
turn heat back down to low & add 2 tbsp chickpea flour
mix the chickpea flour in well for 3 minutes then turn back up to medium heat & add ground beef
cook the ground beef until browned & then add sea salt & thyme
mix everything together then turn off the heat & cover, if beef & veg are done before the potatoes
preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
Once the potatoes are boiled, peel them
next, mash or whip the potatoes with 5 tbsp melted butter
once butter is mixed in, add 1/4 cup beef broth, minced garlic, sea salt, thyme, & rosemary
Once all steps above are complete, layer your cottage pie!
pour beef/veggie mixture in pan
top with your mashed potatoes
optional: top mashed potatoes with shredded Kerrygold Cheese
bake for 35 minutes
Once your cottage pie is out of the oven, let cool for about 5 minutes & enjoy! Did you know that "Shepherd's Pie" is made with lamb & "Cottage Pie" is made with ground beef? If you loved this one, try my easy crockpot Corned Beef Recipe!
