I made this for my father-in-law who is from England and he said it was the best he ever had. I agree! How flavorful. Made another suggested recipe. Not even close to the awesomeness of this recipe!

Loved this recipe, it was a huge hit at the office and they are always asking when I am going to bring it again! I don't usually cook following a recipe, I sort of wing it and always adjust the seasoning to our taste. This is the closest to what I get in some of the pubs around town and I am very impressed. Thank you for this wonderful recipe!

I did not add beef consomme or browning sauce, I did add about 2cups of water and about 2 tbls of beef bouillon to the flour paste. I added corn and peas the beef mix and it came out better than I expected.

This was ok. My husband thought it was yummy. I thought it was very salty - probably from the consomme or browning & seasoning.

I made some changes to this as well. I substituted ground turkey for beef, instant mashed potatoes prepared according to package instruct., 1 pouch mushroom gravy powder mix & 1 Tbl flour sprinkled over meat & onion/garlic mixture, stir in 1 can beef broth and about 1/4 c guiness stout. Then I added 1 bag frozen mixed veggies then bake in oven as directed with potatoe/cheese mixture on top. Awesome!

It was WAY too watery!! I doubled the recipe to make 2 dishes and I spent 3 hours cooking it down before I dared cook it in the oven and it still boiled over all into my oven. I will use another recipe altogether next time.

This cottage pie needs vegetables. Both my husband and I did not like it. I prefer it with frozen peas, green beans, carrots, corn and a little tomato sauce but due to the liquid from the veggies, there is no need to add it. Any shredded cheese on top gives it a great taste.

This is the best Shepherd's Pie we've ever eaten. My husband loves it as much as the Shepherd's Pie his mother used to make.

I used this as a basis for my Shepherd's Pie. We had leftover roast beef etc., so I shredded up the beef instead of the ground beef, and used the leftover gravy for the sauce.

I'm not sure what makes this 'Irish' as traditional cottage pies - shepherd's pies are made with ground lamb, cottage pies with ground beef - always have a mashed potato topping. I made the meat filling as the recipe stated, but found it incredibly bland and watery. I added onion powder, lots of ground black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and some Bisto gravy granules. This improved it, but I wish I had added some peas or green beans. Thanks anyway.

I had to make some modifications to this recipe due to food allergies. It turned out amazing. My sauce combined 2tbs Worchestershire sauce + Beef Stock + 1/3 cup Basalmic vinegar + seasoned salt. Thanks for the recipe.

I left out the beef consomme since it was never mentioned in the directions and instead added a can of beef gravy to the meat and left out the ketchup and seasoning sauce. I also topped the pie with a homemade pie crust and it came out awesome! I think next time I will add the cheese before the potato since my cheese did not melt very well. Everyone loved it and the pie crust really made it. Thanks!
