Ingredients
1tsp Olive Oil 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, raw diced3/4 pound ground Chicken 2 clove Garlic minced2 cans Chopped tomatoes in tomato juice .25 cup Beef stock, home-prepared 3 medium Carrots, raw, grated.5 head, medium (5-6" dia) Cauliflower, raw 4 tbsp Butter, salted 2 tbsp Heavy Whipping Cream .75 cup, shredded Cheddar Cheese
Shepherd's Pie:
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and fry the onion and garlic until cooked, but not browned. Add the ground chicken and stir until it is all cooked and browned. Add the beef stock, chopped tomatoes and grated carrots. Mix.
Reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes while making the cauliflower topping. Let the liquid evaporate so the mixture thickens.
Cauliflower Topping:
Boil the cauliflower until soft, this takes about 8-10 minutes.
Drain and allow ALL the steam to escape. Too much water left in the saucepan will make a 'sloppy' mash.
Add the butter, salt, pepper and cream. Mash the cauliflower with either a hand masher or mixer.
To Assemble:
Place the shepherd's pie mince/ground meat mix in the bottom of a large casserole dish. Top with the cauliflower mash then sprinkle on the cheese.
Put the casserole dish on a baking try to catch any liquid that may bubble over.
Bake at 350F for 20 minutes and until the cheese is browned.
Serving Size: Makes 6 giant servings or 8 'normal' servings
