Classic Shepherd's pie (cottage pie) فطيرة الراعي الإنجليزية بيوريه البطاطس واللحم المفروم والخضار

Описание: Shepherd’s pie, or cottage pie, as it is otherwise known, is a dish that originates from the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It should be noted that these were originally two different dishes that had a few similarities. For example, shepherd’s pie contained ground lamb, while cottage pie contained beef. Over time, ground beef became the filling of choice, and lamb was used less frequently. Thus, these two names were used interchangeably.

The dish originates from the British Isles, but some might argue that it is an Irish dish by origin. The name "Shepherd’s Pie" was first recorded in an 1877 cookbook. In this same cookbook, it was noted that the dish was of Scottish origin. 

During the period between the 18th and 19th centuries, money was very tight. Homemakers were constantly looking for ways to save and make their money and food last longer. As such, these homemakers were very frugal and were looking for creative ways to incorporate leftover food that the husbands and children would pull their noses up at, into dishes. And, by doing so, the humble shepherd’s pie was born. 

Originally, the dish contained a pastry shell at the bottom, top, or both. Over time, this morphed into potato slices at the bottom and top of savory minced lamb meat, until it eventually became a topping of mashed potatoes.
