Those are the facts. Here goes. I told you. It seems to have originated as a way for folks to make use of leftovers, in order to avoid waste, both of the food and money varieties. Simply put, after making a weekend roast, unused meat was repurposed into a pie using affordable potatoes as a crust. Because the Irish, at the time, typically could not afford beef, I suspect the earliest forms of cottage pie contained mutton, since mutton was a cheaper and more flavorful alternative to either beef or lamb.
For a while it was used interchangeably with cottage pie. At the time the dish was invented, given the socio-political context of the United Kingdom and Ireland, it seems likely that the Irish were among if not predominantly those who would be looking to make use of their leftovers in such a resourceful way.

I prefer to use a large oven-safe pan rather than a casserole dish making it almost a one-pan meal , but you could transfer everything to a casserole dish as well.
My version is of course gluten-free, but here are some other variations to enjoy:. If you plan to make this ahead of time, I suggest keeping the mashed potatoes and filing separate at first. Store them away in the fridge in sealed containers. Then, pop it right into the oven for baking. When it comes time to freeze leftovers , just place them in freezer safe containers for up to 3 months. This could be a great option if you also plan to meal prep this on a Sunday night. Just bake it, divide it into 6 sections, and freeze it!

Thank you for sharing your feedback! Can I leave out the Worcestershire sauce? I am making this today. How would I go about making this ahead of time?

I had extra ingredients on hand so I ended up doubling the recipe, thinking that we could freeze some for another night. It was so good though that we ended up eating all the leftovers :.
I made this pie last night and it was delicious. My husband loved it and said it was better than any restaurant. I added a bit too much salt when doing the final seasoning, so I added a tablespoon approx of balsamic vinegar and a tablespoon approx of red wine vinegar which toned the saltiness down nicely. I also encased the mix in puff pastry top and bottom, and served the mashed potato on the side hey, I like puff pastry.
This is amazing!!!! I followed recipe but added ingredients. I added an 8 oz can of corn with the peas. Before I put casserole in fridge I put a nice layer of cheddar cheese. This a definite favorite! Love the looks of this recipe! You are so right in cooling the meat filling before attempting to spread on the mashed potatoes. I like to make in individual gratin dishes because spooning it out of one big dish always seems to make it look messy.
Try this one! Thankyou for all your recipes. Thanks for an awesome recipe. I could eat this whole thing myself!
