Why have I never heard of this fascinating food?
Cottage pie or shepherd's pie is a meat pie with a crust of mashed potato.[1][2][3][4][5]
The term cottage pie is known to have been in use in 1791,[2][6][7] when the potato was being introduced as an edible crop affordable for the poor (cf. "cottage" meaning a modest dwelling for rural workers).
In early cookery books, the dish was a means of using leftover roasted meat of any kind, and the pie dish was lined with mashed potato as well as having a mashed potato crust on top.[8][9]
The term "shepherd's pie" did not appear until 1877,[2] and since then it has been used synonymously with "cottage pie", regardless of whether the principal ingredient was beef or mutton.[1][4][7][8][9][10][11] More recently, the term "shepherd's pie" has been used when the meat is lamb,[12][13] the theory being that shepherds are concerned with sheep[14] and not cattle[15][16][17] (see folk etymology).

I make this frequently a few different ways! One of my favorites!

My wife's shepherds pie is outstanding.
Traditionally Shepherds pie is made with ground Lamb (hence the shepherd) and Cottage pie ground beef.
She adds some fresh mint and a splash of vinegar once the lamb is fried, and the pie ends up tasting like minted gravy when finished :P

Is lamb commonly eaten in the UK? No one I know eats lamb, you can't hardly buy it at the grocery here.
I love it

We have it once a week at our house, and it's as abundant/cheap as regular beef steak here.
We have no wolves in Britain any more so that helps ;D

Sounds good, Mutton has a nice aroma in the meat. I make a killer West Indian Mutton Curry (it's Leroy's favourite) ;D

THE BEEF loves his pie, THE BEEF'S Mom made it for THE BEEF once a week . . . THE BEEF stayed 9 months in Daytona ate it every day at Union Jacks ( great pub - most likely gone ) for lunch. Go heavy on the corn and onions.

As a kid I ate quite a lot of those pies. And never ever the same one. I remember one with slowly stewed horse meat; so delicious.
Thank for remindingme, I might make a pie this week, with lamb... :)

Love Shepard's Pie, have had it in a few Irish Pubs in Ft. Laud where it was great! My mother used to make it years ago.
