Shepherd's Pie (Cottage Pie, Potato Pie)
Tip
You can substitute the lamb for beef.
You can use lamb or beef mince, just skip the step to mince the meat.
The vegetables are quite fine (except peas) so you can still see them but only just. If you prefer chunks of veges, chop the veges for a shorter time on a lower speed.
Substitute any of the vegetables for a vegetable you prefer such as corn, beans, broccoli, cauliflower.
If you don't have fresh herbs use 1/2 the quantity or each herb dried or use 1 teaspoon of mixed dried herbs.
You can add some cheddar cheese to the mash or sprinkle some on top.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
