16 Reviews of Shepherd's Pie Quebec-style (Pate chinois)

From: Zilla

On Oct 22, 2003

This is "comfort food" par excelance! I made this exactly as written. DH, who is the world's pickiest eater liked it. I made a second batch with frozen corn kernels, a tsp of parmesan cheese and a minced garlic clove mixed in. The plain kernels don't make sauce like the creamed corn, although it was also very good.

    I gave this 5 stars. My family loves this. My brother requests I make this when he comes to visit. This is a kid pleaser. One of my friends makes this and it's so yummy! She add's a can of kernal corn to her creamed corn. She seasons her ground beef with seasoned salt, mrs. dash, onion powder,garlic powder, salt & pepper to taste. She assembles her different. She pours the drained seasoned browned beef in a baking dish, tops with mashed potatoes, then the mixed corn. The rest is the same. Thanks for posting such a yummy recipe! Christine (internetnut)

    I have made this more times than I can count, starting in 1969 when my family lived in Ottawa and a friend's French-Canadian mother showed me how. You can jazz it up, you can spice it up, you can add onion or garlic, but this recipe is just the best comfort food around!

    EASY! And tasty. Comfort food. I made it vegetarian style, with meatless ground beef, which worked very well.

    The kids love this dish. We also add gravy to the beef and serve extra gravy on the side. Great comfort food.

    This is just the type of meal my dh likes. plain and simple. He had two helpings and I cleaned up what was left after I finished my first plate. I will definately be making again. So easy.

    My family enjoyed this. Very easy. I can see adding more seasonings & other veggies just to have a little fun with it. Got to keep the creamed corn in though for an easy sauce.

    I make a very similar recipe. Instead of just putting the mashed potatoes on the top, I also line the buttered casserole dish with the potatoes (which means you have to make twice as much). My DH loves this! I call it a poor man's shepherd's pie.
