Really tasty. I used mashed cauliflower for the topping. I didn't add any water but I did a couple of carrots, a pinch of mixed herbs and chilli flakes. Delicious thank you.
Cooked this for dinner last night and it was great... best tasting cottage pie I have ever had. I used lamb mince instead of the beef, didn't put in mushrooms as we don't like them and added a zucchini and carrot and extra garlic. I too only added 100g water and ended up cooking the last 15 minutes with the mc off to evaporate a bit. Topped it with quirky Jo's cauli and leek mash and a bit of parmesan.
Thanks for an awesome recipe. I'm a new thermie owner and this was a total winner at my place tonight. I added kale zucchini corn and carrot. Extra tomato paste and less water as per the previous comments. I have only ever cooked cottage pie with a powdered recipe base from the supermarket - not anymore!!
I added seveal other vegetables to make this dish veggie nutrish and added half of the water after reading the reviews. My teenager and husband loved it but my toddler turned her nose at it. I had heaps of mixture left over and I made pies (using a puff pastry recipe) with the left over mixture for lunch boxes. Hubby and teen asked for this dish again. Thank you for posting your recipe.
This recipe is great! It's the first time I've cooked mince in the thermo as I was dubious about the texture/taste, but it turned out awesome.
I also refuced the the water to 150g, did 3 tablespoons of tomato paste, added diced carrot, celery, peas and corn. Will definitely be making again.
This is delicious! I reduced the water and used 150g. for my own note, I used corn, peas, mushrooms and 2 tablespoons of tomato paste. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe! Another note is to make double as this batch didn't last! Lol
I adored this recipe. Its definately a great way to experiement with the TM (I am a reletively new user) so was able to try the mash potatoe recipe as well which was sublime. I read the comments and halved the water, I doubled the amount of tomatoe paste, added peas as well as used 1tsp parsley, 1tsp thyme and 1tsp of rosemary. I also added some cheese on top and baked until golden. The first night was delicious but the second was even better as the rest of the juice had soaked in. I can't reccomend enough !
Very flavoursome, I make this and top with NO FAIL MASHED POTATO, it's the nicest cottage pie recipe I've tried. Freezes well and can even be heated from frozen if necessary.
Made this tonight but added different veges and an extra tablespoon of tomato paste. Could have done with a bit of extra something else but can't put my finger on it. Turned out very well and tasty nonetheles. Will definitely make again
made this tonight. Was so good true South African memory
