Matt's Anti-Recipe Shepherd's Pie

Some potatoes
Some butter
Dashes of milk
Some salt/pepper/paprika
1.5 lbs. ground beef
1 can condensed tomato soup
Thawed frozen mixed vegetables
Some more paprika

This is a recipe for Shepherd's Pie. "Fuck that!" says Matt.

Peel and slice some potatoes (four in this case), then boil them so they can be easily mashed.

Most recipes don't tell you how to mash the potatoes. They just expect you to do it.

This anti-recipe is much more considerate. 



Mash half the potatoes and mix in some butter and dashes of milk. Mash in the rest of the potatoes with some more milk and butter. 

Notice that he got the potatoes so well-boiled that you could mash them with a fork!


Mix in some salt/pepper/paprika as you see fit.

Brown 1.5lbs of beef, seasoning as necessary. 

SO MANY beefs.


Place browned beef in baking dish and stir in 1 can of condensed tomato soup. Place a layer of thawed frozen mixed vegetables on top of the beef. Spoon the mashed potatoes on top of the vegetables, until they are all covered with a nice layer of potato. 

Very nice. :)


Sprinkle some more paprika on top.

Bake 25 minutes? (At 375.) Or until golden and bubbly.

It should look like delicious.

Matt's cooking usually comes with beer. This dish was paired with this beer, which was hop-hop-hoppy!

Served with some French bread warmed in the oven.


My Rating: 4/5 "The combination of the beef and tomato soup is quite wonderful. It's a great combination of textures, especially if you're a mashed potato fan. Nice!"
