SHEPHERD'S PIE
This is from Cook's Illustrated folks, who tinker to death every aspect of a recipe. Altho I haven't tried it yet, I wouldn't change a thing. On second thought, maybe leave out any extra salt, but that's just for me personally given sodium restrictions. Low-sodium broth seems to have plenty on its own.

Steps:
- Cook lamb over med-high heat, breaking up, until there is no pink and fat has rendered, about 5 minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl to reserve drippings.
- Return 2 T. of drippings to pot. Heat over med-low heat until shimmering. Add onion, carrots and 1/2 t. salt. Cook until softened and lightly browned, 7-10 minutes.
- Stir in garlic and tomato paste; cook until fragrance about 30 seconds. Stir in flour and cook until incorporated, about 60 seconds. Whisk in broth and wine, scraping up browned bits, until sauce is smooth.
- Stir in reserved lamb, worcestershire, thyme, and rosemary. Coook until it begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Off the heat, stir in peas. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a 2 to 2.5 quart baking dish. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, cover potatoes by one inch of water. Add 1 T. salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until taters are tender and a fork easily slips into the center, about 10-12 minutes. Drain. Return to pan over low heat. Mash them to a smooth consistence. Stir in butter and cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Dallop potatoes over filling and smooth into an even layer, making sure they attach to the edges of the casserole dish. You shouldn't be able to see any filling. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 450 for about 30 minutes, until edges bubble and top is lightly browned.
- Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

THE BEST SHEPHERD'S PIE
We stuck with tradition and made our shepherd's pie with lamb, but you could easily swap in ground beef. The saucy filling is packed with tender vegetables and the creamy topping is inspired by the Irish potato dish, colcannon, and is filled with cabbage, leeks and cheese.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- For the topping: Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Season with 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and reserve the saucepan.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, onion, celery, garlic, thyme and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and tender, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook until it turns brick red, about 8 minutes. Add the lamb, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, about 7 minutes.
- Stir in the peas. Stir in the flour until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add the broth and Worcestershire and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
- To finish the topping, melt the butter in the large saucepan over medium heat. Add the cabbage and leeks and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the heavy cream, 1 tablespoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper, and cook until warm, about 1 minute. Return the potatoes to the pan with the cabbage and add the cheese. Mash with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the egg yolks.
- Transfer the filling to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the topping, swirling to create texture. Make sure that the sides are sufficiently covered so the filling doesn't leak through. Bake until the filling is bubbly and the top is lightly golden, about 35 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
DARINA ALLEN'S SHEPHERD'S PIE
This is an adaptation of an irresistibly homey recipe from the Irish chef Darina Allen's cookbook "Grow Cook Nourish: A Kitchen Garden Companion in 500 Recipes." She devised it for leftover roast duck and gravy, but here, meaty duck legs are braised especially for the dish (they may be cooked up to 2 days in advance). The topping is an earthy blend of potato and parsnip, a brilliant counterpart to the rich saucy filling. To be true to the spirit of the recipe, you should feel free to replace the duck with other combinations of cooked meats, vegetables or mushrooms. You'll need 5 to 6 cups of filling in total.

Steps:
- Cook the duck: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Season duck generously with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting pan in one layer. Scatter with onion, carrot and celery, thyme sprig, bay leaf and allspice, then add broth and wine (liquid will not cover). Roast, uncovered about 30 minutes, until skin has browned nicely. Turn legs over, cover pan tightly and return to oven. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees. Cook 1 hour, or until meat is quite tender when probed with a fork.
- Remove legs from pan and set aside to cool on a baking sheet. Pour liquid from roasting pan into a measuring cup. There should be about 3 cups; add broth if necessary. Spoon off any rising fat (save if you wish for another use). When duck meat is cool enough to handle, pull it off the bones and roughly chop, discarding gristle and skin. (This step may be done up to 2 days in advance, if desired.)
- Make the filling: In a wide, heavy skillet or Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened and beginning to color, about 5 minutes. Add flour, stir well to coat and continue cooking until mixture is a nutty brown, about 5 minutes more. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of the braising liquid, whisking well as mixture thickens and reducing heat to a simmer. Taste and add more liquid as needed until you have a medium-thick gravy. Adjust the seasonings to taste. Off the heat, carefully fold in chopped duck meat and parsley. Transfer mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or 4-quart casserole.
- Meanwhile, make the topping: Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes and parsnips. When water returns to the boil, adjust heat to a brisk simmer and cook until completely tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain in a colander, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Return potatoes and parsnips to pot and mash with 6 tablespoons butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper, thinning with a little cooking liquid if mixture seems dry.
- When ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees. Drop large spoonfuls of the mash evenly over filling. Use a knife or spatula to spread mixture until it evenly covers the top. Cut the 2 tablespoons butter into small chunks, dot over the top, and sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake until bubbling at the edges and well browned on top, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
