Instructions to make Cheesy Shepherd's Pie:
- Peel and chop potatoes, add them to a large pan of salted, boiling water. Cook for 15 minutes, or until fork-tender.
- Pre-heat oven to 400ºF
- In a large cast iron skillet, add olive oil and onions. Sauté until translucent. Add carrots and corn and cook for several minutes or until the veg begins to soften. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the ground beef/sausage and cook until the pink is gone. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the garlic, port wine, Worcestershire sauce and herbs. Allow the alcohol to cook off for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the flour by sprinkling it over the mixture and stir. Be sure not to leave any clumps. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes.
