I thought they looked too big for one person CC but it's hard to tell how big casserole dishes are from pictures.

I made this for tea tonight, following the recipe ingredients, mostly, but with a different method. I had very few vegies in my crisper, so had to resort to frozen ones. I used a pea, corn and carrot mix.

This is my modified recipe:

1 onion, quartered
2 carrots, rough chop
2 celery sticks, rough chop
bunch mint leaves
150ml water
250ml red wine
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp tomato paste
1 Tbsp chutney
good pinch ground pepper
500g minced lamb
1 - 2 cups frozen mixed vegies

Chop onion, celery and carrot 3 seconds/speed 5
Sauté 2.30 minutes/speed 2.
Add everything else, except lamb and vegetables.
Place lamb mince into basket and insert into bowl.
Cook for 25 minutes/100/speed 3, MC on.
Break up mince with spatula and place into Thermoserver. Break up with a fork if necessary.
Replace basket in bowl,
Add frozen vegies to basket and cook a further 5 minutes/100/speed 2, MC on.
Remove basket and place vegies in with mince.
Add 2 - 3 Tbsp gravy mix or a flour slurry to remaining sauce.
Cook for 3 minutes/speed 2/100, MC off, or until thickened.
Pour into Thermoserver and mix together.
Place into casserole and top with a mixed mash. I also added some mint sauce to the sauce to see how that went. It was delicious.

Thanks for the idea, CP
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Bumping this for the cooler weather.

I made this today and added a few extras.  I made far too much for the tmx so did the prep in thermie and finished it on the stove.

The great things with Shepherd' s Pie is that you can do anything with them and they always turn out great.  I woud never have thought of putting mint in, though. Must remember to do that sometime.

It's the weather for comfort food here.
