Roast Beef Cottage Pie

Recipe #202348 | 45 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 6 -8 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Halcyon Eve

Cottage Pie is like Shepherd's Pie but with beef instead of lamb or mutton. I made this up to use leftover roast beef from Christmas. The roast was a prime rib, which made for a delicious pie, but other cuts will do. I wouldn't use chuck, but round or rump or sirloin roast should be fine, so long as it's not too tough a cut. Amounts are approximate; this isn't meant to be a very precise recipe. Times also are approximate.

Ingredients

  • cups leftover mashed potatoes, warmed
  • 1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet brown gravy mix
  • tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • granulated garlic
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag frozen mixed vegetables (I used a blend of petite peas, corn, green beans, and baby carrots)
  • 2 1/2-3 cups chopped leftover round tip roast or other roast beef
  • salt and pepper
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Preheat oven to 375* F.
    2. 2
      Press about 2/3 of the potates into the bottom and up the sides of a 2 1/2-3 qt baking dish. Set aside remaining potates.
    3. 3
      Prepare gravy according to package directions; set aside.
    4. 4
      Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet and saute onion and granulated garlic until onion is tender and just beginning to turn golden.
    5. 5
      Add frozen vegetables and saute until just warmed, about 5-6 minutes. Add beef and saute 2-3 minutes longer. Add gravy, mix together well, and heat until bubbling.
    6. 6
      Pour beef mixture into potato shell. Carefully spread remaining potatoes over the top (if very full, you can place the baking dish on a cookie sheet to catch drips if it bubbles over).
    7. 7
      Bake at 375* F for 25-30 minutes or until top is turning golden and filling is hot. Serve immediately.
