Yum! Followed the recipe to a T except for browning under the broiler...I skipped that step. I've made this at least a dozen times and it never disappoints.

This came out terrific and is a keeper, but I think I'll cut back on the curry next time - a bit overwhelming.

LOVE this! I challenged my husband, who does all the cooking, to try a meatless January. He made this last night and it was a hit. Even my fussy teenager ate it. He did make a few adjustments. We didn't have eggplant or bell pepper. He added about three ounces of soy crumbles for texture. I suggested the addition of cauliflower next time to highlight the Indian character of the dish. There are plenty of other ways to customize this recipe. Bottom line - YUM!

Made few subs to be a vegan meal (soy milk & veggie parmesan for mashed potatoes). Stirred veggie-parm into mashed potatoes. Took some of the review suggestions and added a chopped carrot, little less curry, and few extra spices. The veggie part of the pie was amazing - and totally rocked as leftovers the next few days! My kids wouldn't touch it, but I think that was due to onions chopped too big. Husband, who prefers meat in everything, said it was good. My vegan Dad raved about it. Definitely good meal for vegans/vegetarians who don't miss the meat. ;)

Perhaps I did something wrong, but I thought this recipe was quite bland and I even added vegetable broth instead of water, and sour cream and cottage cheese to my mashed potatoes. All I could taste was the curry/cumin. Next time I will probably try it with beans and mushrooms on the bottom layer, then veggies in the middle and potatoes on the top without the curry and cumin... and extra garlic.

Wow. I was surprised how much I liked this! I thought the curry would be weird in a shepherd's pie, but the flavors went together nicely. I'll definitely be making this again!

I loved this recipe with a minor adjustment. I substituted 2 zucchini and 1 can of black beans for the eggplant. This is the second vegetarian Shaphard's Pie I have tried and this one is definitely the better of the two.

We're not fans of eggplant so we skipped it and substituted 2C cubed zucchini and 1C frozen grilled corn instead. Just to use it up, I threw in some leftover soy beef crumbles which added some texture. We also skipped the Parmesan cheese on top. This is such a good recipe and we're making it again today, in fact!
